Adidas Samba OG Sporty & Rich White Collegiate Burgundy

This Sporty & Rich x adidas Samba “White Burgundy” emerges as the fifth colourway, alongside other sporting classics such as the Stan Smith. Founded by once Complex employee-turned-influencer Emily Oberg, Sporty & Rich started off as a humble Instagram page and magazine before turning into a fully-fledged brand. The sportswear-inspired luxury label first teamed up with the 3-Stripes in late 2022, featuring a footwear and apparel capsule that resonates with the German sportswear powerhouse’s athleisure aesthetics.

This collaborative adidas Samba features a supple white leather upper reinforced with cream-white suede T-toe overlays. Suede burgundy accents make up the sawtooth 3-Stripes on the sides and back tab, keeping in line with S & R palette. Gold foil Sporty & Rich branding adorns the lateral panel, matching the premium pearl and gold hang tag that adds to the edition's luxurious feel. Vintage-inspired cream hues appear on the laces and satin interior lining, while the signature gum rubber sole completes this premium Samba rendition. As with the prior collections, the S&R Samba "White Burgundy" comes neatly packaged in a green and white box, its removable lid a detail only found on older 3-Stripes releases that give these an archival touch.
