All black Stan Smith 80's or vintage? - Poor Sod - 22-08-09
One time I saw a picture of a pair of all black Stan Smith 80's and I haven't seen them since. They had black sole and white trefoil and "stan smith" on heal and the portrait on tounge was white on black. Anyone know anything? Like when they were released, or even where I can get a hold of them? It's on top of my wish list right now.

You mean something like THESE but all black? These were released earlier this summer.
BUT.... i've not seen them in all black colourway with white details anywhere. Only a million other Smithie models, some fully black. Maybe the pic you saw, was of a sample pair which often differ from the commercially released versions by the colour combos. Or unless i've just been too blind while scavenging for more adidas.......
PS. How's the sizing of the Stan Smith 80s? I'd fancy some myself but have no idea how they size up compared to other Smithies, Superstars or Campus'.
RE: All black Stan Smith 80's or vintage? - Poor Sod - 22-08-09
Yeah they were just like that, but in shiny leather and black soles. I guess that someday Adidas will make a proper all black release like that. I also wish for a pair of all red ones like that
When it comes to sizes I have UK9 on all my Adidas; Campus 80's, Campus 2.5, Stan Smith 80's, Stan Smith Vintage, Superstar 80's, Superstar II, Match Play, Trimm trab, Samba and Gazelle. Works perfectly, but I can fit a pair of 9.5's also with some thicker socks I guess. Maybe the Stan Smith vintage feels a tiny little bit narrower, but I don't know. All my shoes feels great.

FC: What do you mean: "you'llupsetpeopleonheretalkingaboutnonsoops"??
This is an under section of the forum dedicated to other sneakers, especially Stan Smiths: Stan Smiths, Adicolor & Other Retro/LTD Edition Adidas
RE: All black Stan Smith 80's or vintage? - Grimmy - 22-08-09
Yup, those 80s feature a nubuck leather upper while most of the other all black Stan Smiths feature shinier leather materials.
There are many all black Stan Smiths around already, but none of them are 80s. There's even an all black snake skin version. Some do have the white trefoil on the heel but none have both the trefoil and stan smith on there.
Hmm.. all red, huh? Never seen those but i've seen all blue ones.
Cheers for the sizing info.. didn't really help much tho as i know at least in my size UK10, especially sizing of the 80s seem to vary between the model series.
fc, don't be cruel.. as said, this IS the non-soop section so one can talk here about non-soops if felt like it.

Haha!
Perhaps the humor is best left for those who know how things work around here so there won't be any misunderstandings.

Not a black sole, but seem close to what you want
RE: All black Stan Smith 80's or vintage? - Poor Sod - 22-08-09
Close but no cigar. I want black soles. Thanks anyway.
RE: All black Stan Smith 80's or vintage? - Poor Sod - 26-09-09
I just went for a pair of all black Stan Smith II for now. They were on sale so... But I'm still looking forward to a release of all black and/or all red Stan Smith 80's. Did you read that oh you lurking chief designer on Adidas??
