This season, a study in presence and character, athletic codes are retold through sleek tailoring as Wales Bonner reconceptualizes adidas’ signature DNA. From blouses and jackets to tracksuits and T-shirts, each piece is thoughtful and expressive. As for accessories, and drawing inspiration from timeless adidas codes, a duo of leather bowling bags take center stage, transforming historic sports aesthetics into sculptural forms.
The Fall/Winter 2025 collection from Adidas Originals and Wales Bonner combines sporting heritage with cultural craftsmanship through refined tailoring and expressive design. The line features elegant pieces, sculptural leather bags and reinvented classics like the WB Karintha Lo in satin. The campaign, photographed by Chris Rhodes, captures an authentic, individual character and creative spirit.
Continuing to advance the collaboration’s established design language, the instantly iconic WB Karintha Lo returns for its third satin iteration, further expanding the possibilities of what an adidas shoe can be and do. Essential in suede, exquisite in sequins and now sparkling in satin, Karintha’s journey continues to unfold.
The supporting cast of Fall/Winter 2025 footwear also hosts a number of reimagined Trefoil classics, including the WB Japan presented in a lavender hue. A leftist choice, until you consider that the soft, calming shade of purple has historically been associated with serenity and purity. The WB Superstar grounds the collaboration in an iconic sporting heritage through an engineered perspective, while the WB Adilette is elevated with a considered human touch.
A study in presence and character, the collection is accompanied by a campaign filmed by Chris Rhodes and starring an eclectic set of characters. Championing a new wave of countercultural energy, the portraits deftly weave personal narratives of Gene Gallagher, Alva Claire, Shim Mheuka and Bebe Parnell. Authentic, raw and undeniably individual, each image brings new meaning to each piece in the collection.
