adidas stan smith classics cut heels in casual mule slip-on makeover
the mule movement – wearing backless shoe designs – shows no signs of slipping off trend with the launch of the adidas stan smith mule slip-ons. born in the world of tennis in the 1970s, the familiar lines of the classic design have now been fashioned into a backless version. all you need to do is slip the casual mules on and go; an even easier method as we slowly step back into the world after the COVID-19 lockdown.

the adidas stan smith mule shoes retain the clean court style and main construction of the classic – even the redundant laces are still there. its leather upper body with the perforated ‘three stripes’ recedes to its heel-less rear. the makeover is then complete with three striking color options: a decorative ‘tech indigo’; a vibrant ‘tribe yellow’; and the classic ‘cloud white’.
