Names like Rod Laver and Stan Smith are recognized by adidas devotees worldwide, so why doesn’t Arthur Ashe get his due in the sneakerhead set? The man for whom the US Open’s spotlight stadium was named is a true giant in tennis and sports history in general, and The Brand With the Three Stripes will offer a subtle tribute on the eve of 2012’s final Grand Slam with a top-notch reproduction of Ashe’s ’70s era signature. This off-white leather adidas Originals Matchplay adds navy accents for a classy feel you’ll be recognize in more photos below and find available now at Originals accounts like Trés Bien.
