The adidas Samba is coming back in collaboration with Clot for Summer 2026, and this time it arrives in three distinct colorways: Classic Black, Grass Green, and Floral Pink. The Clot x adidas Samba Espadrille is a returning release, meaning this silhouette has already earned its place in the partnership’s catalog, and the three new finishes give collectors fresh options heading into the warmer months.
adidas is one of the most recognized sportswear and footwear brands in the world, with roots going back to mid-twentieth century Germany. The brand built its reputation on performance athletics before adidas Originals emerged as the cultural and lifestyle arm of the company, keeping classic silhouettes in production and in conversation with streetwear, art, and fashion communities globally. That Originals label is where the Samba lives, and it is one of the most enduring models in the entire adidas catalog. The Samba started as a football training shoe designed for use on hard or icy surfaces, and its low-cut profile, gum sole, and T-toe construction have remained largely consistent across decades. Over time it moved well beyond the pitch and into everyday wear, becoming a staple across skate scenes, casual dress, and collaboration culture.
Clot is a Hong Kong-based brand founded by Edison Chen and Kevin Poon. The label has built a long and well-documented history of collaborations with major sportswear companies, approaching each project with references drawn from Chinese culture, street fashion, and craftsmanship. Clot’s work with adidas has produced some of the more visually distinctive takes on classic silhouettes, and the Samba Espadrille version reflects that approach by pairing the familiar football-inspired low-cut shape with design details that fit the label’s aesthetic point of view. The espadrille detailing adds a textural dimension to the silhouette that separates it from standard Samba releases, making it a recognizable Clot interpretation rather than a straightforward colorway drop.
