Andrew Rizzo As far as retailer-sneaker brand relationships go, very few rival the strength of Size? and adidas. The UK chain consistently stocks terrace classics that allude the adidas website, and for our purposes, their collaborative “City Series” is a sensation among Three Stripes collectors.
For their 25th anniversary, Size? is unleashing another exclusive, limited six-pack of “City Series” shoes. First up is the adidas Shanghai; one of the newer additions to the series that debuted in 2020 for the retailer’s 20th anniversary lineup. The 2025 edition puts a twist on its predecessor’s design theme, calling in a purple suede upper reminiscent of the lights that gleam over the Huangpu River. Blue leather makes up the slim backtab, and the stripes come in neon red.
The Size? adidas Shanghai is limited to just 2,025 pairs, each of which are marked by gold numbering along the spine. Special 25th anniversary co-branding appears on the insoles, and the tongue logos are also taken in gold to match.
The Size?-exclusive draw for the “City Series” adidas Shanghai opens February 1st, 2025, with an in-store release scheduled to occur February 7th. See detailed images below if you plan on trying for a pair.
