This Comfort Closure version of the Stan Smith trades the classic lace-up front for hook-and-loop straps, a practical switch for kids getting dressed on their own. It keeps the perforated three-row stripe pattern on the leather upper as its main design signature, along with the heel tab that has marked the shoe since the late 1960s. The tri-white finish pairs Footwear White through the upper with a Vintage White sole, keeping the look nearly monochrome apart from subtle tonal shifts between the two whites.
Sized for the grade-school range, it carries the $160 retail price and released on March 24, 2017. The strap closure sits alongside the perforated stripes and tongue portrait that have defined the silhouette since adidas renamed it for tennis player Stan Smith in 1978, giving younger wearers the same design in an easier-to-manage package.
