The stranglehold of the adidas sneaker over the style set doesnโt look to be letting up in 2025. With so many fun colour combinations and now prints, well, why would it?
As we begin to embrace a new wave of dressing, moving away from capsule wardrobes and quiet luxury instead favouring maximalism and personal style, a bold pair of sneakers is the new status quo. And none come bolder than adidasโ new cow print sneakers.

Leopard print reigned supreme in 2024, but if recent runways are anything to go by, our desire for animal patterns are taking a more unique nature this year, making this new style the ultimate it-sneaker.
Whether itโs runway inspiration or cultureโs recent obsession with all things country and western, these cow print sneakers are just the latest marker of a growing obsession with the print. The animal print was seen on runways at Dior Cruise โ24, Gestuz Spring/Summer โ25 and in collections at Acne Studios, Munthe and Samsรธe Samsรธe.
Itโs not hard to see the sartorial appeal of a cow print piece; itโs neutral enough to pair easily with other wardrobe pieces but erratic and unusual enough in pattern to make a statement.


As for the Adidas sneakers themselves, theyโre available in both the Samba and the SL 72, made viral by Wales Bonnerโs reimagining of the silhouettes in countless sell-out collaborations.
The new launch is already garnering a lot of buzz, so itโs not to be slept on if youโre considering adding to cart. Theyโre also currently exclusively available via ASOS, so stock is assumedly limited.
