On December 9th, 2004 those within the Toyota Center witnessed basketball magic as Tracy McGrady miraculously dropped 13 points in 33 seconds to lead the Rockets over a stunned San Antonio Spurs squad. In an unconnected homage to that historic night, the adidas T-Mac 3 Restomod is now dressing in Houston’s synonymous red and white palette that McGrady dawned for five seasons.

Continuing to harken back to the silhouette’s iconic color blockings, a crisp “Core White” premium leather coats the near entirety of the shell-like upper before further consuming its tongue construction and presiding laces. Instituting the pair’s bright “Better Scarlett” accents across the medial side’s TPU overlays, the latter then concentrates along the jacquard mesh collar, sock liner and tongue trim above. Underfoot, the red palette stretches to the heel and mid-foot shank before a “Matte Gold” foil finish attributes to the model’s various branded embellishments.

Currently available via the store list below for a retail price of $140, in the meantime enjoy official images of the adidas T-Mac 3 Restomod “Rockets”.
