Ronnie Fieg’s Kith x Clarks x Adidas Samba Sneaker Will Release With 2 New Colorways on Christmas
One of the biggest sneaker collaborations of the year is growing larger, as Ronnie Fieg has announced new colorways for the Kith x Clarks x Adidas Samba.
The crepe-soled Samba is returning with two new colorways. A Christmas-appropriate color scheme features leather Three Stripes branding in blue, green, and burgundy to go along with a blue leather mustache. White suede then makes up the majority of the upper, save for a grey suede for the toe tip. Down low, of course, is Clarks‘ signature gum sole.

Another pair then swaps in black leather for the stripes and mustache to go along with the same white base with grey tip.
The three-way Samba collaboration made its debut in March with the colorways, including one quite similar to the new pair previewed with its leather panels all in green. Resale prices for the sneakers now reach as high as double the retail price of $220 on platforms such as StockX.
Fieg also wore this new Samba colorway in his October Footwear News cover story. In that same story, said Clarks Originals chief marketing and digital officer Tara McRae said: “We knew it was going to be a good release, but we were blown away by how massive the response was. The insane excitement and desire for the product produced the need for an additional large pre-order, something we had not done before.”
In November, Adidas accepted the award for the Samba being named the Shoe of the Year at the FN Achievement Awards 2023.
The two new Kith x Clarks x Adidas Sambas will release Dec. 25 through Kith’s website and app. The retail price is $220.
