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'.

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.

Close but no cigar. I want black soles. Thanks anyway.
