In addition to the “Miles Morales” colorway, we bring you another adidas Superstar collab which celebrates the silhouette’s 50th anniversary. What you see above is the Run DMC x adidas Superstar collection along with accompanying apparel.
adidas Originals celebrates the convergence of music and style with none other than the iconic group RUN DMC. In the early 1980s the raucous rap group burst onto the scene and revolutionized the way we all view fashion, wearing thick gold chains, adidas tracksuits, and unlaced Superstars with the tongue popping out. Declaring their allegiance to the brand, RUN DMC?s 1986 instant classic ?My adidas? solidified the legend of the Superstar shoe in hip-hop lore forever. Beyond style, it?s no exaggeration to say that from the beginning, RUN DMC has always stood for breaking through the glass ceiling. The group?s success has undoubtedly shone bright in modern history as a beacon for creative expression throughout the world.
Keeping things classic, the collection features two special makeups of the Superstar 50 silhouette; one white with black stripes and one black with white stripes. Both feature leather uppers a red heel tab, and customary shell-toes. The black pair once again pays homage to Jam Master Jay, with the DJ?s portrait featuring prominently on the tongue. Meanwhile, serving as an ode to Run DMC?s indomitable style, the group?s logos are boldly placed throughout both sneakers, with prominent features on the tongue and sockliner. Allowing the wearer to let the sneaker?s tongue stick out in honor of the iconic rap group?s unmatched flair, both colorways of the Superstar 50 Run DMC come unlaced, with extra pairs of ?fat? laces for good measure. Capping this all off, the commemorative sneakers then come packaged in a custom box.
The apparel offering begins with a Sneakersnstuff exclusive ? a reissue of the iconic ?Kings from Queens? RUN DMC and adidas crew neck featuring embroidery, graphics, and prints throughout, as well as co-branded labels. Next up is a satin varsity jacket inspired by adidas? archival ?Best of Times? leather jacket and featuring a dual branded adidas and RUN DMC lining. Moving on, the collection features two black heavyweight fleece hoodies: one with a ?Hollis Crew? graphic, and one with embroidered ribbons and medallions celebrating the achievements of RUN DMC matched with a gold foil print on the back. Finally, rounding out the apparel offering, are three tees: one white cotton tee with a ?Hollis Crew? graphic, one black cotton tee with a photo print of the group shot by Eli Reed in 1986 on the front and the lyrics to my adidas on the back, and one black cotton tee with a gold foil chest print and Jam Master Jay forever co-branded labels.
The adidas Originals and RUN DMC collaborative collection first launches with an NYC and Sneakersnstuff exclusive release of the ?Kings from Queens? crewneck and black Superstar 50 on October 30th. Following this, the rest of the collection then launches on November 14th, with select pieces available exclusively on CONFIRMED. The collection ranges from $35-$120 USD.
