It looks like there might be another Brain Dead x adidas collab on the way. Brain Dead’s Kyle Ng took to his Instagram to share images of a Brain Dead x adidas Originals iteration of the classic Stan Smith silhouette.

The two first glimpses of the sneaker surface shortly after Brain Dead’s first-ever adidas collaboration, which arrived last week in the form of a reimagined take on the adidas Bowling Shoe.

For Ng’s take on the Stan Smith, he leans into the sneaker’s classic green accents – taking it a step further and bringing in even more of the vibrant hue. The sneaker also stays true to its signature white silhouette, elevated by a perforated Brain Dead logo on one side of the upper.

The tongue sees some more new detailing, stamped with an adidas Stan Smith logo as well as “Endorsed by: Brain Dead” with another one of the label’s faceless logos. Eyelets take a more olive green hue and are complemented by frayed bright green laces. A cream outsole rounds out the design.

Ng also shared a special-edition box for the sneaker on his Instagram, which sees the Three Stripes logo placed inside the Brain Dead head.

Take a first look at the Brain Dead x adidas Originals Stan Smith in the photos above, and stay tuned to Hypebeast for official images and a release date as they surface.
