If there was ever a time you desiered to walk through concert doors or roam all over coliseum floors, it very well might be now. No, there’s not another Live Aid/8 benefit concert coming up to commemorate the fifth birthday of the last one, but instead an anniversary for one of the first explicit instances of overlap between hip-hop culture and major sneaker brands. The Run-DMC x adidas Originals Superstar 80s ‘My adidas’ 25th Anniversary edition commemorates five x five years since the song that gave a name to Three Stripes online customization service first hit radio airwaves. These are unique for their use of custom embroidery on the rear as well as a dookie rope dubrae; are they the greatest shelltoe release of the last quarter-century? Click through to see some more images and expect these in stores starting Friday, November 11th, a fittingly timed release for one of the rap game’s oldest veteran groups. via HB
