Last month, New York’s Extra Butter unveiled the first installment of its Vanguard Collection with adidas Originals. Now the retailer is set to release the follow-up, featuring special editions of the Rod Laver and Stan Smith, both inspired by academic scholars. The former showcases a combination navy nubuck and textile upper, embellished with scholastic crests and a series of embroidered miniature bees. The accompanying Stan Smith is done up in a camel wool upper, complemented with brass eyelets, black leather heel tabs and red pull loops. The kicks will launch at Extra Butter’s NYC location during a special release event at 7 pm EDT on October 20, followed by an online launch on October 21 at 12 p.m. EDT.
