Even with Pharrell Williams stepping in as the men's creative director at Louis Vuitton (the French brand has its sneaker allegiance with Nike), Skateboard P's collaboration with adidas under the Humanrace moniker continues to flourish. With the recent unveiling of the concluding segments of the Humanrace Samba "Tones" collection and an upcoming colorway of the NMD_S1 MAHBs, the duo is back with two fresh takes on the Samba silhouette. Enter the Aluminium Wonder Mauve and Orbit Green Ash Grey editions, two colorways that resonate deeply with Williams' first collaborative effort on the Samba.
Both these iterations of the Humanrace Samba seamlessly blend tradition with contemporary touches. Crafted with pristine leather, they sport an extended tongue and overstitching details on the Three Stripes. The suede panels adorning the toe areas echo the primary colors of each variant. The contrast is evident with the Three Stripes branding and the top eyestay, as pink accents embellish the Aluminium Wonder Mauve version, while the Orbit Green Ash Grey sees a calming blue touch. The word "Humanrace" proudly takes the spot typically reserved for "Samba" on the lateral midfoot. The classic Samba midsole and outsole align with the dominant shade of each sneaker, finishing things off.
The adidas Humanrace Samba Aluminium Wonder Mauve and Orbit Green Ash Grey will release November 3, 2023 through adidas and select retailers online and in-store. Coming in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $180.
