Charming and elegant are words that describe the brilliant design of this special-edition Wales Bonner x adidas Japan “Purple Night Red”. If you’ve been paying attention to Bonner’s 3-Stripes collaborations since 2020, you already know that these contemporary trainers are certified modern classics. Debuting in Autumn ‘25, this lovely adidas Japan iteration by the London-based menswear designer is a flawless crossover of sports and high fashion.
This low-profile retro shoe features a lovely purple hue throughout the lightweight nylon upper and premium suede overlays on the rear and T-toe. A dark brown shade envelops the leather 3-Stripes, eyestays, and back tabs for colour contrast. Notable details, such as the oversized stitching on the rear and the metallic gold eyelet, align with WB’s Afro-Atlantic aesthetic and European heritage. The “Wales Bonner” label decorates the lateral quarter, complementing the co-branding on the insole and textured tongue. True to the 1964 version, a semi-translucent gum rubber sole incorporates thick herringbone treads for superb traction.
