Adidas Stan Smith is a tennis shoe made by Adidas. However, nowadays, the shoe is not used for tennis, but as sneakers.
Stan Smith is an American tennis player, who was active between the end of the 1960s and the beginning of the 1980s. Adidas approached him to endorse the so-called Haillet shoe in 1971.
Introduction
The shoe, usually made with a white leather upper and laces, has a simple design and unlike most of the Adidas shoes has not the external three stripes. Instead there are three rows of perforations (or punched ventilation holes) on both sides of each shoe in the same pattern that should symbolize the three ordinary stripes.[1][2] There is sometimes a sketched picture of Stan Smith on the tongue of the shoe. In some sense, the Adidas branding is minimal on the shoe.[3] The design and form of the shoe has basically stayed the same since it was introduced, but several new versions and colorways have appeared during the years.[1][2]
History
In 1963 (or in 1964), the first Adidas tennis shoe was produced,[2] which marked the beginning of a long line of classic Adidas shoes.[4] The upper part of the shoe is made of white leather, whereas the pimpled outer sole is made of rubber. The inner sole is made of synthetic material. In 1965, this tennis shoe model was named the "adidas Robert Haillet" after the French tennis professional Robert Haillet. When Haillet retired from tennis, Adidas decided to find another tennis player that could endorse the tennis shoe model. In 1967, a green foam padding was added at the back of the shoe for Achilles tendon protection.[5][6][7]
In 1971, the model was renamed the "adidas stan smith",[1] after the acclaimed tennis champion Stan Smith, who was ranked World No. 1 at the time.[4] In 1973, Stan Smith signed a contract with Adidas. For some reason, Adidas could not decide at first if the model should still be called Robert Haillet or if it should be renamed to Stan Smith, so for several years (1973–1978) the shoe was produced with a tongue that had Stan Smith's portrait and the word "Haillet" written above it. In 1978, the word "Haillet" was finally removed from the tongue, and the shoe was really endorsed by Stan Smith and officially renamed the adidas stan smith.
In 1988, the adidas stan smith had been sold in about 22 million pairs, and the shoe was listed in Guinness World Records.[6] In 1994, the number of pairs had increased to 23.7 million.[5]
At the turn of the 21st century, Adidas re-issued a new version of the adidas stan smith – "adidas Stan Smith II". In 2008, a replica of the original adidas stan smith was released in the Adidas Originals line and was named "adidas stan smith 80s". In total, the adidas stan smith has sold over 30 million pairs worldwide since 1971.[1][8]
During a November 17, 2009 interview that aired on WTEM Washington DC The Tony Kornheiser Show radio show, former tennis pro and sports agent Donald Dell said the original Stan Smith green-tab shoe has been in production since 1972, and generated more than US$65 million in revenue in 2008. Dell added during the same interview that the shoe is now available in eight versions, and the model is the biggest-selling tennis shoe ever.
"Complex Sneakers" has listed the adidas stan smith on 4th place of the 50 greatest tennis sneakers of all time.[9] Furthermore, Neal Heard, who wrote the book trainers, put the adidas stan smith on 6th place in his top 10 list.[1]
Despite the enormous success of the adidas stan smith, Adidas decided in 2011 to stop marketing the shoe by 2012.[10][11] According to the French magazine "GQ Magazine", the reason is that Stan Smith is "a myth that cannot be sold in France".[12][13] Several rumors say that the adidas stan smith might come back in the Adidas collection in 2014.[14] Even though the adidas stan smith has been taken out of production, there is still the possibility to obtain the shoe in some ordinary sports or shoe shops and at some online stores. In addition, vintage pairs are sometimes sold at online auction sites such as eBay.

- Early 1980s–present: Marked as Stan Smith, green foam padding with the Adidas trefoil logo and the text "stan smith", a new logo with Stan Smith's portrait and signature on the tongue.
Versions
There are several different versions of the adidas stan smith.[1][2] Normally, they are white with grass-green heel parts and have laces, but there are also other colorings. For example, the shoes can have navy-blue heel parts (or, in principle, any other color) and they can be totally black. In addition, from mid-1990's, some versions come with velcro straps instead of laces.[1][2]
The most common versions of the adidas stan smith are:
- adidas stan smith:[1] This is the classic version of the adidas stan smith. This version has a thin tongue with Stan Smith's sketched portrait and his signature, the back of the shoes has a (normally grass-green) part with the Adidas trefoil logo and the text "stan smith" under the logo, and the inner sole has a printed pattern consisting of the text "adidas" and the trefoil logo. In addition, the inner of the shoes is unlined.
- adidas stan smith II:[2] This version has a thick tongue without Stan Smith's portrait and signature. Instead there is a part of fabric with the text "adidas STAN SMITH". At the back of the shoes there is only the Adidas trefoil logo. The inner sole is white with a single print of the word "adidas" and the Adidas trefoil logo. The inner of this version is lined.
- adidas stan smith 80s:[15] This version is a replica of the version adidas stan smith. However, it has an oldschool or retro touch. Compared with the original version, this version has a yellowed outer sole, yellowish laces, the leather upper of the shoes is not pure white (known as neowhite), and the color of the heel parts is called fairway green. Note that this version also exists in at least two other colorings: white/navy-blue and nubuck black with white outer soles.[16]
Less common versions of the adidas stan smith are:
- adidas stan smith Millennium: This is an updated version of the classic adidas stan smith, which has the same three perforation "stripes", but has the new Adidas logo instead of the Adidas trefoil logo. In addition, the outer sole is thicker and the tongue is thick as on the adidas stan smith II. It comes in white and navy blue, but the classic coloring of white and green also exists. The shoe has a lightweight design.
- adidas stan smith I LG: This version is the same as adidas stan smith, except that the words "STAN SMITH" are printed on the side of the leather upper.
- adidas stan smith Supreme
An incomplete list of limited editions:
- adidas stan smith Slim
