adidas Stan Smiths just got a lot more formal

Bored of your everyday work shoes? Want to spice your footwear up a bit? You might not be able to showcase your favourite three stripes around the office without your boss spitting his coffee out, but there is a smart new pair of adidas Stan Smiths that might act as a loophole...

adidas Originals new trainers take the iconic Stan Smith silhouette and sharpens it up with Primeknit technology, coming in an autumn-ready mid-grey with white branding on the heel and tongue.

With its dark colour, knitted texture and lack of stripes, this new trainer is a suave alternative to regular Stan Smiths.

The Primeknit update will be released later this month
