Willy Chavarria ended his Spring/Summer 2027 runway show in Paris with a first look at what appears to be his next adidas project. Two unreleased Stan Smiths showed up during the finale, with Chavarria wearing one pair and Stan Smith himself appearing in the other.
The white version stays close to the shoe’s traditional look, but the details give it a different feel. Chavarria added a shaggy green heel tab, “W” branding at the back, and a small rose embroidered along the side. It still reads like a Stan Smith, just with his fingerprints all over it.
The second pair goes much further. Worn by Stan Smith, the entire upper is covered in thick green suede that looks almost like grass. It is a simple idea, but it connects back to the model’s tennis roots in a way that feels direct without turning the shoe into a costume.
This would be the latest step in Chavarria’s expanding adidas partnership. His recent work with the brand has included Mexico-inspired clothing, goalkeeper jerseys, and reworked Copa footwear, so the move into one of adidas’ most recognizable lifestyle models feels like a natural next step.
adidas has not shared a release date or pricing for the Willy Chavarria x adidas Stan Smith. The two pairs could arrive later in 2026 or alongside the Spring/Summer 2027 collection, though neither timeframe has been confirmed.
