The Care Bears x adidas Adistar Control 5 Is Feeling Grumpy

Dropping July 1st.

The Care Bears x adidas Adistar Control 5 Is Feeling Grumpy

The most unexpected collaboration of the summer comes from adidas and the Care Bears franchise, a lighthearted dose of nostalgia for everyone who grew up on the TV show and toy line.

Here we have official images of an Adistar Control 5 inspired by Grumpy Bear, that connection confirmed by the blue cloud patch on the right tongue. Velvety light blue material forms the base, followed by light blue leather overlays and silver-accented stripes. The standout feature is an array of stitched-on yellow star patches scattered around the forefoot and heel.

Multiple Care Bears x adidas sneakers drop July 1st, including two Adistar Control 5s, an Adilette Slide, a Samba, and a Handball Spezial. See official images of the Adistar Control 5 “Grumpy Bear” below if these are on your wish list.
