Jeremy Scott beat him to the punch in terms of utilizing a classic Three Stripes crest insignia on one of his adidas Originals by Originals releases this fall, but has there been a more luxurious adi-collab in all of 2011 than those pictured above? Created in conjunction with the new Boylston Trading Co. online boutique, the Frank the Butcher x adidas Originals Forum Hi ‘Hustler’s Crest’ is a trio of soft suede classic hightops that evoke images of a goneby era with their gold embroidery adornments. It’s the Lead and Cardinal pairs pictured here that retailers like Atlanta’s Wish just got their hands on; could the black pair be reserved for a later date, or perhaps friends & family only? Click through to see more of these and let us know how they rank in a year full of monochromatic kicks.
