Michael Le After an eventful debut, Prada is linking up with adidas once again later next week, offering up their luxury-tinged Superstars without the specially made handbag. And while already more accessible as a result, the pack also delivers a small handful of new colorways, reiterating on its predecessor in palettes reminiscent of existing mainstays.
But what’s unique about the partnership is not the colors; rather, each of the three options distinguish themselves through construction alone. The silhouette, which has aged well since its debut in 1969, is simply upgraded material-wise, all pairs benefiting from the expertise of Prada’s many footwear specialists. Fixtures such as the Three Stripes along the side, the ever-classic shell toe, and the leather fabrication around are all Made in Italy as is the fashion house’s signature. Their upper’s polish, which is the result of a full-grain base, is then stamped atop with minimal dual branding at the tongue, heel tab, and counter. Expect to see a traditional White with black accents, a full triple black, and a standout chrome silver.
Grab a detailed look at the capsule below, and if you’re hoping to grab a set, they’ll be available at Prada boutiques, adidas.com, and select wholesalers on September 8th.
In other news, the Yeezy Quantum is expected to return later this month.
