Brain Dead x Adidas Stan Smith & BDE Tennis Collection

Adidas Originals and Brain Dead have come together once again: this time to present a disruptive take on the iconic Stan Smith sneaker in four colorways.

As the first-ever tennis leather shoe, the Stan Smith has acquired cult status way beyond the racket-and-net universe and become one of the most recognizable silhouettes.

For this release, the Stan Smith has been reimagined with slight design touches that inject the Brain Dead factor without bringing it too far from its legacy status: chunky, contrasted laces are chosen in favor of plain ones, the perforated upper sides reveal our signature logo head, and the back padding provides a stark contrast, in a raw, furry fabric. Offered in Cream, Dark Green, Light Blue, and Pink, the Brain Dead Stan Smith is an authentic homage that pushes the shoe’s legacy forward, highlighting its glorious days.

We're not done yet... In addition to our four Stan Smiths, we've created a brand new Brain Dead Equipment tennis collection featuring two graphic t-shirts, a tennis hat, and towel. To complete the set, our iconic tennis tote bag and backpack engineered with racket sleeves will provide you support on and off the court.

Brain Dead Equipment is an ongoing series of accessories conceived and crafted for the all-condition generation. Furthering Brain Dead’s signature design approach, our Equipment line bridges functionality and style through innovative materials for durable experiences.

The iconic Stan Smith sneaker with a disruptive Brain Dead twist is available in limited quantities at wearebraindead.com, select Adidas stores, and select Brain Dead retailers on Friday, September 6th @ 10AM PT. Our complimentary Brain Dead Equipment tennis capsule will also be available online and at Brain Dead Studios and Brain Dead Fabrications.
