Adidas announced in a statement issued Tuesday from Herzogenaurach that the newest Wales Bonner range will go on sale through adidas Originals on Thursday, October 29. The Fall/Winter 2026 line will be sold on adidas.com and the Confirmed app, as well as by selected stores worldwide.
The designer looked back at her own past work for this collection, according to the company, using it to honour the history of the partnership and how it has developed over time. Deep jewel colours and upscale fabrics recur throughout, pairing sharp tailoring with athletic pieces.
Four shoe models lead the release. The WB Karintha now comes in dark brown leather pressed with a crocodile pattern, with eyelets in brushed gold. Green leather carrying the same crocodile stamping covers the WB Gazelle Snake, a version of the brand’s indoor football shoe.
One of adidas’s best-known running models has been reworked for casual wear: the WB ADIZERO Adios Suede, whose upper is entirely suede and whose Three Stripes take a craft-influenced custom form. The WB BW Pony makes its first appearance, pairing pony hair with leather overlays stamped to resemble lizard.
On the clothing side, the centrepiece is a leather blouson coloured in the bark tone typical of Wales Bonner, with crocheted stripes down each side and embossed logos in the same shade. The wider wardrobe includes a tracksuit made of double-knit jersey, track pants with stirrups, T-shirts carrying two logos and a knitted long-sleeve top. Shoppers will also find a pinstriped track top sold with matching shorts, and a football top with a collar offered alongside coordinating trousers.
Rounding out the range are a lanyard, socks sold in two pairs and a neoprene bag with panels modelled on crocodile leather.
Photographer Harley Weir shot the accompanying campaign, which the company said draws on the spirit of London during the 1980s, a period when many cultural strands met and young people forged a fresh fashion stance.
