Have you noticed how popular Veganism is in 2018? Well, it has spread from food to fashion. Sportwear giant Adidas have teamed up with British designer Stella McCartneyto create a vegan-friendly version of their iconic Stan Smith trainer.
Who doesn’t love a pair of the cult cool Stan Smiths? The new footwear – which looks very similar to the originals – features a portrait of McCartney on the tongue, a row of three stars along the side and striped pattern detailing on the heel.
They’re completely leather free, meaning vegans everywhere can sport the classic trainer without guilt. But at £235(three times the price of normal Stan Smiths) the absurd price tag may make even the most ardent vegans think twice.
The shoe is the first of its kind for Adidas and is also bang on point for Stella McCartney. McCartney has long championed eco-friendly, vegetarian alternatives in her designs – her collections have always been leather and fur free.
The new shoes, for both men and women, are available to order online at www.stellamccartney.com or buy in stores now.
