I had the chance to attend last w-e an amazing event in
Amsterdam…
The presentation of the new design of the iconic and original Stan
Smith.
The cherry on the cake was to meet Stan Smith himself.
You know how all these itw go… 5 minutes…
But they were special, I met a great man, elegant and truly interested in sharing his own feelings.

What do you think about the 2014 revival and which color
do you prefer?
"I really like the design, specially the one's in
suede (out 1st of March)
The white one's were sold out very quickly so I was
scare not to have a pair for me ... you imagine!"
Do you consider yourself as a sport legend or a
fashion icon?
"At 60
plus…I think I'm a fashion Icon with a mustache!"
Facts: Adidas sold more than 40 millions pairs of SS
all over the world and now with the new design Wouuuuu… they are going to rule
the world.
