In their new era as one of adidas’ foremost collaborative partners, Edison Chen and CLOT have nimbly danced through the Three Stripes catalog, shifting from a significant focus on the Superstar to a serious push for the Gazelle. Could a new silhouette be mounting an effort to become CLOT’s new favorite? An unexpected early release for the CLOT adidas Stan Smith makes that case far sturdier, now available via select retail outlets.

Indeed, this ties into the CLOT Stan Smith Espadrille queued up for July in crafting a summertime effort behind the iconic tennis style. While that two-pack swapped to a low-pro, jute fabric build, the standard Stan Smith build is on offer here; it’s the branding where things become more interesting. As promised in our title, a curtain of beads takes over the heel cup, with black/white/blue continuations dangling from that flat arrangement. For those who have stayed in lockstep with Chen’s imprint’s latest chapter, this obviously calls to mind similar motifs explored on past Gazelle capsules.

As mentioned throughout, the CLOT x adidas Stan Smith is available now via Sneaker Politics, retailing for $160. Hit the “Where To Buy” links included below to pick up your pair. Though Sneaker Politics is the sole stockists carrying this shoe at this time, expect a wider launch sometime this summer, likely coinciding with some of the notable tennis on the upcoming tennis tournament schedule.
