The Stan Smith Espadrille 'Core Black Green' colorway takes on a moodier, more urban profile — shifting the narrative from resortwear to modern minimalism. The smooth black leather upper delivers a sleek, tonal look, contrasted by the classic green heel tab and crisp white tongue branding for just the right amount of visual punch.
Here, the jute-wrapped espadrille midsole feels less breezy and more grounded — a textural break that adds depth to the otherwise stealthy upper. The darker palette brings out the silhouette’s structure, allowing the interplay of materials to lead, rather than color.
This pair offers a more versatile, year-round option in the collection — equally suited for pared-down summer fits or layered, monochrome styling. It’s a subtle shift, but one that recasts the espadrille hybrid with an edge that’s less coastal, more contemporary.
