adidas by Stella McCartney returns to its racing roots with the Rasant, a reimagined sneaker that charged down Stella McCartney’s Spring/Summer 2025 runway in Paris last September. Rasant translates from German as “rapid,” which fits its lively silhouette and nod to the archival Monza design—a ’70s and ’80s favorite that once turned heads on an early McCartney catwalk, sparking an enduring relationship between these two powerhouses.
This revived version comes in white or red, sporting back tassels that flutter with every step. It embraces a playful Y2K aesthetic yet stays true to McCartney’s eco-conscious philosophy by using only animal-free fabrics. With adidas and Stella McCartney continually pushing sustainable boundaries—recent collections feature everything from recycled materials to updated cruelty-free alternatives—this vegan approach feels right on time.
Now that the Rasant is officially part of the Spring/Summer 2025 lineup, it anchors the growing line of athletic-meets-fashion pieces that define adidas by Stella McCartney. For those ready to lace up, the shoe is currently available on both brands’ digital storefronts.
