Adidas Originals Applies Preppy Looks to a Samba Trio

The Adidas Samba may have gotten replaced in countless wardrobes across the globe, but the silhouette continues to deliver compelling styles for loyal and new fans alike.

Ahead of the Fall/Winter 2025 season, the Three Stripes' oldest silhouette still in rotation has emerged in three collegiate-appropriate makeovers: "Cloud White" shares the stage with "Collegiate Green," "Earth Strata" and "Blue" colors, delivering versatile style. Similar color-blocking has landed on the Adidas Originals staple before, but Achilles' heel detailing differentiates the trio from its predecessors.

A ribbed fabric replaces typical suede and leather at the hind-foot, donning its respective pair's boldest tone. A set of three stacked horizontal lines evoke images of preppy athletic gear from yesteryear, hinting at the capsule's possible inspiration. Underfoot, a semi-translucent "Gum Three" outsole rounds out each presentation.
