The Stan Smith has never looked cuter.

Unless you've been living under a rock over the past few years, you'd know that Hello Kitty loves a sneaker collaboration. After taking on the Air Presto last summer, fashion favorite feline now has her sights set on the Three Stripes, as we take our first look at the Hello Kitty and Friends x adidas Stan Smith. Simple yet striking, make sure you read on to find out everything that we know so far.

Arriving in a clean "Cloud White" colorway, HK's Stan Smith is dressed in a smooth leather outfit with furry detail around the heel as a nod to Kitty's soft fur. "Hello Kitty and Friends" is debossed around the lateral panel in black, and rather than the classic dubrae, Hello Kitty's head can be found across the lacing system complete with her signature bright red bow. This can be taken off easily if you decide that you want to place it elsewhere.

Of course, you can't talk about this sneaker without mentioning all of her pals on the sockliner and insole. Featuring some of the most iconic Sanrio characters ever, if you're a fan of the Japanese franchise then this shoe has been made with you in mind.

Set to release on March 31st, the Hello Kitty and Friends x adidas Stan Smith "Cloud White" will sell out almost immediately, so keep it locked at Ox Street for your best chance to cop. Let us know what you think of this kawaii collab, and in related news, Sean Wotherspoon has another adidas Gazelle on the way!
