Itโs only natural to gain confidence the better you get at something, but youโll need a whole heap of skill to confidently rock the latest footwear collaboration between Adidas and Vice Golf. Featuring a trio of new colourways in the Stan Smith silhouette, these kicks will be impossible to miss if you spot them on the links.
This isnโt the first time the folks at Vice Golf have teamed up with Adidas, following the two brandsโ debut release of a special edition UltraBOOST at the end of 2020. The mostly grey/white golf shoes featured a number of distinct design choices, including fluorescent lime green highlights and midsoles with a flecked pattern, both of which have become something of a motif in this second collaboration.
The second collaboration between Vice Golf and Adidas is something of a capsule collection, with three different colourways in Signal Green, White Tint and Solar Red each offering their own specific appeal. Echoing the flecked midsoles of the original Ultraboost collaboration, all three Stan Smith colourways feature a similar speckled pattern, which even extends to the tongue and heel panel of the golf shoes.

As you might expect, the shoes feature both the Vice Golf and Adidas logos, as well as Stan Smithโs classically understated three-stripe perforations and the phrase โembrace your viceโ found on the heel. Apart from the branding, thereโs not much that visually separates this collaboration from a standard edition Stan Smith shoe, until you turn them over and see the traction-focused adiwear rubber spikeless outsoles.
โCombining the tradition and class of Adidasโ Stan Smith shoe with our hidden and less-hidden design elements was incredibly fun!โ explained Ingo Duellmann, CEO and Founder of Vice Golf.
โItโs a shoe to wear from early in the morning to late at night, on the golf course, at the bar, or wherever.โ
Despite Duellmannโs confidence in the shoeโs versatility, youโre still going to need some confidence in your golf swing to be able to proudly strut through the clubhouse after a round. Of course, the green and red colourways are the most attention-seeking, leaving the white editions as the more conservative choice.
The Vice Golf x Adidas Stan Smith collaboration is set to go on sale on the 25th of March, with an RRP of US$125 ($168).
