Los Angeles-based label Sporty & Rich has had quite the journey. Starting as a moodboard ideated by founder Emily Oberg that transitioned into a magazine and globally-renowned imprint focusing on sportswear apparel with a healthy message, Sporty & Rich shows no signs of slowing down and is reconnecting with adidas Originals for its second footwear collaboration.

The duo’s debut last year marked the start of an ongoing partnership that keeps Oberg’s creative output at the forefront. After releasing its own versions of the adidas Stan Smith, Campus 80, and Samba OG, Sporty & Rich is preparing three new colorways of the latter silhouette.

Landing in a trio of distinct colorways, the first sees the Samba’s original tones maintained across the low-top model. Crafted from premium white leather, classic black accents adorn the medial Three Stripes and heel tabs. Beige suede mudguards add contrast completed with gilded tongue and medial branding set atop gum rubber soles.

The final two renditions feature blue and tan hues mirrored in reversed palettes, featuring tonal uppers with suede touches on the tips, lacing systems, medials, and heels. The same design notes enchant all pairs, making for a cohesive offering.

Take a first look at the three new Sporty & Rich x adidas Samba colorways above. The collaboration’s second drop will be released via adidas and select retailers in the coming months.
