adidas Originals and Wales Bonner are back with another collaborative collection, this time looking to their shared history for inspiration. Arriving for Fall/Winter 2026, the latest release brings a fresh perspective to some of the partnership's most recognisable designs, combining vintage sportswear references with luxurious fabrics, rich colours and considered detailing.
Footwear continues to play a central role in the collaboration, with several familiar silhouettes receiving updated treatments. The WB Karintha returns in dark brown crocodile-embossed leather, complete with brushed gold eyelets, while the WB Gazelle Snake adopts a similar finish in green. Elsewhere, the WB ADIZERO Adios Suede transforms the performance running shoe into an everyday lifestyle option, introducing a full suede construction and bespoke Three Stripes detailing.
Making its debut is the WB BW Pony, a new addition to the partnership's footwear offering. The minimalist adidas silhouette has been reworked with pony hair uppers and contrasting lizard-print leather panels, continuing Wales Bonner's exploration of texture and unconventional materials.
Beyond the sneakers, the collection introduces a selection of elevated sportswear and tailoring. A leather blouson in Wales Bonner's signature bark colour leads the apparel offering, featuring crochet detailing along the sides and subtle embossed branding. Elsewhere, a double-knit tracksuit, pinstripe track top and matching shorts, football-inspired separates and stirrup track pants offer a contemporary interpretation of traditional athletic clothing.
The wider collection also includes knitted pieces, co-branded T-shirts and accessories, including a neoprene bag featuring crocodile-inspired panels, a lanyard and socks.
To accompany the release, photographer Harley Weir has captured a campaign inspired by London's cultural landscape during the 1980s. Drawing on a period when music, fashion and youth movements were influencing one another, the imagery reflects the creative exchange that has helped shape the adidas Originals and Wales Bonner partnership.
The FW26 collection continues Grace Wales Bonner's ongoing exploration of the relationship between fashion, sport and cultural identity, with the latest designs offering another interpretation of adidas' extensive archive.
The adidas Originals x Wales Bonner Fall/Winter 2026 collection will launch globally on October 29 through adidas' website, the CONFIRMED app and selected retailers.
