adidas BW Army

adidas BW Army – quiet luxury for your feet

While Samba, Gazelle and the Handball Spezial are seen everywhere, those with a feel for archive fashion turn to the adidas BW Army. It’s the next logical step for anyone who wants to wear adidas Originals beyond the obvious styles – quiet luxury on foot, without loud branding all over the shoe. Right now, the adidas BW Army is just as present at fashion weeks and in galleries as it is on the way to the office or out for dinner.

Its clean retro design fits perfectly with today’s minimal and vintage aesthetics – ideal for anyone looking for an understated everyday trainer that works just as well in the city, at the office or for going out.

adidas BW Army – a trend‑driven trainer with an iconic look

Low profile, soft leather, signature rubber outsole: the adidas BW Army feels like a trainer with true all‑time‑favourite potential. The smooth leather upper is supple from day one, while the suede toe cap gives the shoe its distinctive look. The low cupsole keeps the foot close to the ground, and the leather lining ensures a comfortable foot climate.

The silhouette of the adidas BW Army dates back to the 1970s, when adidas produced indoor training shoes for the German Armed Forces – the same base design later adopted by numerous high‑fashion labels. Today, it’s trending among those who appreciate iconic looks with a story.

adidas BW Army in black, white and luxury versions

At solebox, the adidas BW Army is available in several variations. In white leather with suede overlays and the iconic raw‑edge finish, the adidas BW Army looks especially clean and minimal. The black version highlights the textured leather upper more strongly, giving the trainer a sharper, more refined overall appearance.

If you’re after premium materials and added detail, the Lux version combines suede, smooth leather and textured leather for a particularly sophisticated finish. The X Hartcopy collaboration and the Decon version complete the line‑up, each adding its own take on design and construction.

All models feature the same iconic rubber outsole with subtle adidas branding at the heel. The fit is true to size, and the leather softens slightly over time, adapting comfortably to the foot.

Styling: the adidas BW Army in your outfit

The adidas BW Army is perfect for looks where a adidas Samba would feel too loud. Paired with slim pleated trousers and a knitted jumper, it creates a clean, grown‑up look – ideal for the office or a dinner after work.

Worn with wide‑leg jeans, the flat silhouette of the adidas BW Army stays understated, complementing the outfit rather than dominating it. Add cargos and an overshirt, and the BW Army carries a relaxed weekend look with ease.

The black adidas BW Army works particularly well with monochrome outfits and dark trousers, while the white version adds fresh contrast to earth tones and olive. Treat yourself to the adidas BW Army at solebox – in black, white or the Lux version. Currently available: Lux editions and the Hartcopy collaboration. Worldwide shipping on your trainers.
