Paris Fashion Week continues with an official unveiling of Song for the Mute’s adidas lineup for Fall/Winter 2026, the Australian label debuting multiple deconstructed takes on both the Samba and all-new SL72 Pro.

Song for the Mute dropped its first adidas collab in 2022 and has since been on a steady upward trajectory in the sneaker world, bringing its avant-garde eye and focus on texture and materials to a range of Three Stripes icons. Given the adidas x SFTM relationship has grown alongside the modern rise of the Samba, it might come as a surprise that the brand hasn’t collaborated on the model before. But good things come to those who wait, and SFTM understood the assignment. Here we have three deconstructed, or “Decon,” styles featuring flexible leather and suede uppers. The deconstructed build allows the heel to be folded down so you can wear the shoes as slip-ons, supported by an extra protective tab over the spine. Three colorways are lined up: a black and white leather look, brown and black nubuck, and a green and black suede option. All come with large co-branded tongue tags and cream laces.

The other half of the collection consists of a new version of the adidas SL72 called the SL72 Pro, here given a number of key revisions. The upper plays off the “PT,” or prototype, version of the model, which takes inspo from an original archived design. All three styles appear to be made from thin leather, suede, and canvas. A new collar and backtab are utilized to better support the deconstructed build, while new canvas placements frame the T-toe overlay. Even more important is a new midsole made with Lightstrike, the same system used across running, basketball, and more adidas performance categories (hence the “Pro” name). Retro Blue, Chalk, and Cumin colorways of the SFTM x adidas SL72 Pro will be available, all of which come with rope laces and silver lace locks.

The SFTM x adidas Sambas and SL72 Pros will release sometime during the Fall/Winter 2026 shopping window, although no concrete date has been announced as of this writing. See detailed pics below and stay tuned for more info.
