After a few years of being eclipsed by Nike (at least here in The States), adidas seems to have revamped its approach to design and marketing and has certainly gained ground in the niche community. Having recently seen the glow in the dark pair as well as a navy/pink pair, we now confirm that these are part of a collection known as the Unforseen Pack. Consisting of the Campus, Gazelle and Spezial, the classic silhouettes are given new life by taking an ‘unforseen’ approach.
The Campus GID seems to keep it simple, featuring all premium white leather, with an embossed logo on the tongue, but obviously we know that there’s more to this shoe; when flipping the lights reveals its glow upper. The Campus OG has become synonymous with many style-conscious groups, from bboys, to indie kids, to jazz heads. With such a recognizable shape, the navy nylon upper gets accented by flamingo laces and branding. And finally the Spezial, originally a staple for serious handballers, will transcend to being a fashion statement with its forest green textile upper, contrasting leather stripes, and four-zone construction OG midsole. If you haven’t already spotted these at your local Consortium dealer, expect the pack to drop soon.
