We gave you a look at the brand new adidas Originals AO Toss a couple of months ago, and we’re back with a higher hitting version of this recent design from adidas Originals. The AO Toss Hi comes across as a mixture of various tennis shoes from the adidas lineage, condensing that long history into a nice casual sneaker with some curated style behind it. These come with some new features too though, check out the elastic bits on the sides for slip on access and the tonal triangle patch on the back. Hit the jump to get a detailed look of this red and white colorway of the adidas Originals AO Toss Hi, which is available now at SNS.

The adidas Originals x Star Wars collaboration has been going strong for several seasons now but never before have their combined efforts come together in such a markedly accessible way. As the designers turned to the frigid planet Hoth for inspiration, the marketing department realized that with a bit of humor, you can reach beyond the Saga’s core following and help the less sci-fi inclined appreciate George Lucas’ signature work as contemporary mythology (it’s funny to see a wampa mowing the lawn even if you don’t know what one is!). Reappropriating of symbols from the films in novel ways seems congruent with the evolution of this capsule, and you can see images of the entire set after the jump below. Click through for images of the adidas Originals Stan Smith 80s Mid ‘Vader’, the Campus 80s ‘Wampa’, the Forum Mid ‘Military’ and the Decade Hi ‘S.W. Hoth’, along with a trio of jacket options and let us know which is the best.

The adidas Originals Superstar 2 is an undeniable classic of 80′s design, a shoe that ruled the world with its shell toe and three stripes. Fortunately the adidas Originals line has been generous in re imagining this popular model, this time coming with two new pairs in a complete nylon set up. The two new Superstars shown here come in some nice summer colorways, sticking to a monochrome approach in collegiate royal and aero reef, respectively. The nylon is a rare treat for adidas models and adds some extra mileage to the overall durability of the shoes. Continue reading for a detailed look at the two sneakers from the adidas Originals Superstar 2 Nylon Pack, both of which are available now at Eastbay.

The ongoing Jeremy Scott x adidas Originals collaboration has seen a slew of killer sneakers, with the “wings” add-on really pushing the limits of sneaker design. We’ve got an updated look at the Jeremy Scott x adidas Originals JS Wings Camo that are slated for a Fall/Winter release. These high tops stick to traditional camouflage colors, with a good mix of greens and browns swirling about the leather upper. Furthering the outdoorsy feel is the bright orange lining on the inside of the shoe. With that being said, these won’t exactly make you blend in, as the Jeremy Scott Wings are without a doubt some of the most unique shoes in recent memory. Stay tuned with us for this Fall/Winter 2011 release from adidas Originals.

Few footwear choices convey the warm feelings of summertime as well as boat shoes and as they’ve become an increasingly mainstream choice, we’re seeing more and more sneaker hybrids. The midtop version of Nike SB’s Stefan Janoski signature just hit retail and while these new adidas Originals Summer Deck lowtops aren’t built for skating, they’re every bit as satisfying from a lifestyle perspective. Check out these two new Summer Deck colorway sin navy and beige canvas, two pairs that have among the best alternate laces for any pack we can remember. They both look great with tonal leather cords holding them together but adding gold to navy or red to beige makes for a couple-a head-turners. Click through to see more, let us know how they compare to the other boat shoe-infused kicks we’ve seen here on Sneaker News and look for these at select adidas Originals retailers. via FNG

We’ve seen quite a variety from the adidas Originals Forum Lo RS this spring, everything from insane all-over patterns to simple two-toned looks and a few OT Tech releases in between. This new Forum Lo fits into the subtler of those categories, its grey suede design adding white accents to become a neutral anchor to any number of clothing combinations. Add a pair of your own colorful laces or keep em as-is to balance out a bright tee, either way just be sure to cop a can of waterproofer to protect against those April showers and look for ‘em at select Three Stripes retailers like Caliroots.

‘Kawai’ is the Japanese word for ‘cute’, a label that’s become synonymous with the cultural movement over the past few decades toward all manner of products and behaviors. Cartoon characters like Hello Kitty and Pikachu (not to mention the plethora of anime and manga references) epitomize kawaisa and now the cutesy aesthetic will be applied to a new pair of adidas SL 72s. This pair in royal blue and white fits right in with the Tokyo Tech line from adidas Originals, their toe and heels embellished with what look to be fruit shapes in a tonal rubberized material.
