Craig Green’s CG SCUBA STAN Revitalizes a Legend
Combining a Scuba outsole with adidas Originals’ iconic Stan Smith leather upper.
Craig Green is never one to shy away from experimentation, especially when it comes to footwear collaborations with adidas. The British menswear fashion designer is constantly adding to his ever-growing portfolio with the Three Stripes by releasing new footwear pieces that have come dressed in premium materials while also emitting personality and edge. Now, he’s ready to present one of his latest sneaker offerings in the form of the CG SCUBA STAN, and it’s a design that merges adidas’ archival aesthetics with the evolving features of the CG SCUBA PHORMAR which was first introduced during Fall/Winter 2021.
The new sneaker is made with a classic Strobel construction and combines a Scuba outsole with adidas Originals’ iconic Stan Smith leather upper. Staying in keeping with the history of the collaborative partnership, Green has also included a wraparound tension cord — a regular feature of the designer’s work — and it connects to the Scuba sole. The shoe is available in beige, black, and the classic white and green colorways, while each sneaker also delivers an intricate interplay between materials and contours with carefully-placed paneled detailing. Rounding off the design, the CG SCUBA STAN’s Trefoil references ancient artifacts, designed to create a synergy between the past and future.
You can have a closer look at the new CG SCUBA STAN from Craig Green above and the sneakers will be available from October 31 on the official adidas website and with select retailers.
