New York City based artist Dalek is included in the four artist group to create sneakers for the adidas Five-Two 3.
Dalek chose to work on the adidas Forum Mid, which he blended in black, shades of blue and grey to construct the sneaker. The star of the sneaker is a cartoon character whose image is seen on the inner-lining collar, and side panel.
The kicks are now available at select shops with adidas accounts including Stockholm based SNS.
Japanese designer Kazuki has placed himself as a key figure at adidas with his work on his own adidas Originals by Originals collection and his work on the Madsaki adidas Samba.
Kazuki has now teamed up with Makoto Azuma to created the Plants pack, which is part of the adidas Originals Five-Two 3. The pack includes the adidas Samba, adidas Forum Mid, adidas Superstar, adidas Stan Smith and the adidas Nizza High.
The kicks are minimalist, in white uppers with brown outsoles that represent the dirt and the insole is green representing plant life. Each sneaker’s tongue features the adidas trefoil logo in green, which extends down as a leafy stem.
The kicks are expect to release this month.

We first posted the Nom de Guerre adidas Forum Mid earlier in the summer. Since then the sneaker has released in a limited distribution. This week the sneakers saw a wider releaser with online availability at Stockholm based Sneakers N’ Stuff.
The kicks come in a grey colorway in a design inspired by vintage U.S. Military combat boots.
Last week we got a look at the adidas Stan Smith 80’s by British fashion label Maharishi. The results from that collaboration was clean in a sky light blue.
The collaboration between the two brands continues with light blue again prominently used on a pair of Form Mids, a tee, a zip-up hoodie and a track jacket. The use of light blue is a reference to naval uniforms worn during the Second World War.
The collection is not yet available at sneaker shops but we will keep you posted when they release.
