Andrew Rizzo Japanese sneaker boutique atmos and adidas linked up on a collaborative “Glow In The Dark Snake” adidas Superstar in 2014, and now ten years later, that same design theme is making another cameo – but with some notable twists.
Off the bat, you’re hit with a black and white adidas Superstar with gold accents throughout, an agreeable look by itself, sure, but there’s much more at play. For one, the shoes are comprised of GORE-TEX product technology, making them entirely resistant to the elements. Then, you find that the white stripes and heel panel come adorned with an ever-so subtle snakeskin texture, and when you hit the lights, they glow in a vibrant green hue.
While maybe somewhat of an afterthought in this case, atmos and adidas opt for the 1982 version of the adidas Superstar here, which has a slightly different shape than the modern cut. Not for nothing, the Superstar 82 is also said to be the edition most preferred by Chris Severn, the designer of the model.
The atmos x adidas Superstar 82 “Glow In The Dark Snake” releases in Japan via an atmos raffle on June 15th, with the deadline for new entries set for June 14th.
