adidas x Stella McCartney: The Return of Racing Style

The collaboration between adidas and Stella McCartney takes a bold step forward with the revival of the Rasant sneaker, a fresh iteration that made its way down the Spring/Summer 2025 runway in Paris. Named after the German word for ‘rapid,’ the Rasant captures the essence of speed and performance, blending contemporary flair with nods to classic 70s and 80s designs. Originally inspired by the Monza, a popular model from adidas’ past, the Rasant’s sleek, energetic silhouette continues the storied relationship between these two iconic brands.
A Nod to the Past, with a Modern Twist
Available in two striking colors – white and red – the revived Rasant features playful back tassels that flutter as you walk. While its design pays homage to a Y2K aesthetic, the sneaker stays firmly rooted in Stella McCartney’s eco-conscious philosophy. The shoes are crafted entirely from animal-free materials, aligning with both brands’ commitment to sustainability. In fact, this release marks just another milestone in their ongoing efforts to push the boundaries of ethical fashion, with each new collection incorporating more recycled materials and cruelty-free alternatives.
Embracing Sustainability
As the fashion industry increasingly moves toward sustainability, the Rasant represents a key addition to adidas by Stella McCartney’s growing collection of athletic-fashion hybrids. The sneaker is already available for purchase on both brands’ digital platforms, offering fans an opportunity to lace up in a design that combines style, performance, and a forward-thinking approach to fashion.
