Edison Chen Reveals The CLOT x adidas Qi Flow

The espadrille sole returns.

Edison Chen Reveals The CLOT x adidas Qi Flow

Updated January 22nd, 2026: Ahead of Lunar New Year, Edison reveals an official first look at the upcoming CLOT x adidas Qi Flow; the shoes feature an espadrille sole with a upper that mimics footwear worn in Chinese martial arts. More details to come.

The CLOT x adidas partnership promised a focus on creating entirely new footwear rather than simple colorway swaps, and Edison Chen has followed through on that vision. The latest model to embody that mission is the CLOT adidas Qi Flow, shown here via retailer images ahead of its expected wider release in 2026.

Starting from the bottom up, the model features an espadrille-style sole similar to CLOT’s recent work on silhouettes like the Stan Smith and Gazelle, delivering a low-to-the-ground feel that fits neatly into the ongoing slim sneaker wave. The upper, meanwhile, leans more toward a slipper-like construction, built from a deconstructed black fabric. Almost reminiscent of a soccer boot, the shoe opens across the forefoot and features a diagonally placed panel on the lateral side, connected to a larger medial panel by three elastic straps, secured with knotted detailing and a faux pearl accent.

The CLOT adidas Qi Flow hasn’t been officially announced as of this writing, but a wider release is expected for Spring/Summer 2026. For those eager to get ahead of the curve, Level Shoes currently has limited sizes available. See official retailer images below and stay tuned for further updates.
