In 2023, the Adidas Samba experienced a remarkable resurgence, marked by a series of collaborations that breathed new life into this iconic silhouette. Leading the charge was soulful tailored menswear brand, Wales Bonner, introducing many colorways that experimented with various materials. With this guide, we take a step back in time to appreciate some of the equally impressive collaborations that paved the way for the Samba renaissance we are experiencing in 2023.
What makes each collaboration stand out is the distinctive interpretation the collaborators bring to the classic silhouette. By incorporating different colors and materials, these collaborations add a unique twist to the beloved OG favorites. Beyond mere aesthetics, the limited production runs associated with these collaborations have sparked greater demand, elevating certain Samba colorways to a higher level of exclusivity and increased value compared to the general releases we see on shelves.
