FAQs
What makes this Stan Smith a limited edition?
This is a limited edition release celebrating the 30th anniversary of the adidas x Bape collaboration. It features unique design elements and branding specific to this milestone.
Is the Bape ABC Camo pattern durable?
The pattern is printed onto the upper material. While generally durable for lifestyle wear, avoid abrasive cleaning methods that could scratch or wear down the print over time.
Can these be used for actual sports like tennis?
While they are based on a tennis shoe silhouette, these limited edition trainers are primarily intended for lifestyle and fashion wear. They do not offer the specialized performance features of modern athletic shoes.
How should I clean the gold accents?
Clean the gold lettering and logo gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using liquid cleaners or polishes on the gold parts, as this could cause damage or tarnishing.
What is the retail price of these trainers?
The adidas Stan Smith Bape ABC Camo was released on February 10, 2021, at a retail price of $160 USD.
Are there other colorways or collaborations available?
Yes, adidas and Bape have collaborated on various Stan Smith models over the years, and the Stan Smith line itself features many other designs and colorways. This specific Bape ABC Camo is a distinct release.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper is primarily covered in the Bape ABC Camo pattern, which is typically applied to a textile or synthetic base, consistent with the classic Stan Smith upper construction.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels off
Try on with the type of socks you typically wear. Refer to adidas sizing charts for comparisons. Some users find Stan Smiths fit slightly large, so consider if half a size down might be suitable if experiencing significant looseness.
Discoloration on the upper
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or heat, which can cause fading. Clean using mild soap and water, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Sole getting dirty quickly
Regularly wipe the white sole with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a specialized shoe cleaner or a magic eraser. Consider using a protective spray designed for white soles, though test compatibility first.
Creasing on the toe box
Creasing is natural with leather footwear and wear. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use. Avoid overly tight lacing which can exacerbate creasing.

Compatibility: Designed for adult male footwear, size UK 14. They are compatible with casual and streetwear attire. The sizing is standard for adidas trainers.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: The camouflage textile upper should be cleaned gently. Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water to remove dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the pattern and material.
- Cleaning the Sole: The off-white rubber sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a bit of soap. For tougher marks, a magic eraser or specialized shoe cleaner can be used sparingly.
- Laces: Clean laces separately by hand or in a laundry bag on a gentle cycle. Replace if they become significantly worn or dirty.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat or sunlight, as this can cause materials to warp or fade.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and damage.
