Double Tap to Zoom

While adidas' best-of is largely composed of returning fan favorites, each season sees an influx of new styles and updates of classics to refresh the wardrobe. And a new wave of adidas Summer staples just hit the brand’s page, and it’s a particularly strong one.

From icons like the Stan Smith (and its latest designer revamp), to patterned swim shorts and textured polos, the adidas Summer collection is a distillation of everything we love the brand for. It’s simple athletic wear done to the highest degree, seamlessly crossing the boundary between sports and lifestyle.

Shop the best of the adidas Summer collection below.

Samba Vegan

The Samba isn't slowing down. However trendy, the classic silhouette will never go out of style, and has special projects like the ongoing Wales Bonner collab to thank for the occasional surprise update.

Board Shorts

These quick-drying, super lightweight board shorts are perfect to double-function as a summer pant and swim suit, for vacay or the impromptu trip to the pool after work.

OG Stan Smith

We'll never not love the Stan Smith. Though it's not been front and center of the sneaker conversation of late, it's due another period of spotlight time.

Y-3 Stan Smith

Even more so in its Yohji Yamamoto's newest Y-3 iteration.

Leo Bucket Hat

Practival and eye-catching, the leopard print bucket hat is as functional as it is fun. It's a no-brainer for warm weather, and a simple way to up your outfit's ante on days so hot you can barely be bothered to wear anything at all.

Track Pants

adidas' track pants are, at this point, a part of any good closet. More recent collections, line the Neuclassics line, are reinventing tradition, with adjustments to color or silhouette, the latter of which is the case for these stylishly baggy ones.

Striped Shorts

Also from the Neuclassics line, find these asymmetrically printed sweat shorts.

Ultraboost 1.0

A new-age legend, the Ultraboost is an unmatched running shoe, its regular reinterpretations only improving on its already-outstanding performance qualities.

Adizero Shorts

Match them with a minimalist pair of short running shorts, why don't you?

Textured Polo Shirt

Nothing beats a polo. More weather-appropriate than anything long-sleeve, more interesting than just any ol' t-shirt. So, polo shirts all summer please.
