Kicks: BBC x adidas Originals Stan Smith

Pharrell pays tribute to the original Ice Cream sneaker, 10 years after its release

Posted by

Pharrell Williams and adidas are no strangers to each other – so it seems fitting enough that he recruited the adidas Originals Stan Smith to be the canvas of the ~original~ Ice Cream sneaker resurrection (sorry Reebok). For those not in the know, Pharrell launched his Ice Cream sneaker line with Reebok alongside BBC back in 2005, featuring a ‘diamonds and dollars’ print. That means it has been a whole decade, and what better way to celebrate than to honour the designs that started it all?

The BBC x adidas Originals Stan Smiths feature the lucrative ‘diamonds and dollars’ print borrowed from the original Ice Cream designs, and is available in two colourways: black and white – both ponyhair. The black pairs feature a tinted blue translucent sole, while the whites are translucent pink. Each pair features the BBC helmet logo across the tongue in place of Stan Smith’s mug.

The sneakers will be available on November 20 through Billionaire Boys Club flagship stores as well as online.
