adidas Consortium “Your City” | Drop 2 Release

Friday, November 13th, 2009 | Posted in Adidas

The idea behind the adidas Consortium "Your City" collection is connecting city branded sneakers with sneaker shops. During the 1970's and 80's adidas created a number of athletic sneakers named after cities from around the globe. Adidas has brought back some of these sneakers with help from a collection of select sneaker shops.

The first drop of the adidas Consortium "Your City" collection included the adidas Trainer L.A. x UNDFTD, the adidas Oslo x Sole Service, the adidas Berlin x Solebox and the adidas Boston Super x Bodega.

Tomorrow, the second drop of the collection is set to release at shops that carry adidas Originals footwear. The second collection includes the adidas Milano x Slam Jam, adidas Stockholm x Sneakers N' Stuff, adidas Kopenhagen x Norse Projects, and adidas New York x Dave's Quality Meats.

To have a detailed look at the adidas Consortium "Your City" Drop 2 collection, check here.

Monday, November 9th, 2009 | Posted in Adidas

Last month we posted the adidas Samba designed by Japanese born artist Madsaki. The sneakers are part of the adidas Originals Five-Two 3 Artists collection. Today we have closer look at the sneaker that comes in black with upper with touches of white, grey and gold.

The sneaker comes in sea snakeskin leather upper with suede on the toe and leather on the flap. The sneakers were designed with cycling in mind as Madaski wore the kicks while working as a bike messenger in NYC.

The sneakers have been treated to be waterproof and have an insole that resists odor and bacteria.

adidas Forum Mid x Dalek | Five-Two 3 Artist Series

adidas Superstar 80 x Pochoir | Five-Two 3 Artist Series
