Next year will bring a special collaboration that has the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles team up with adidas to release a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x adidas Superstar Shelltoe collaboration. Recently reported by Complex, here is a first look at one of the pairs from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x adidas Superstar Shelltoe collab.
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x adidas Superstar Shelltoe is a nod to the Superstar?s ?Shelltoe? moniker as it pays homage to your favorite childhood heroes in a half shell. A release that celebrates the 40th Anniversary of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x adidas Superstar Shelltoe features a turtle Green suede upper alongside a reshaped toe-cap mimicking the shell of the turtle. You also get while the Red three stripes traps and eye-wraps appear on the upper. According to TMNT folklore, the original turtles all wore red eye-wraps before being differentiated with their own individual colors. There’s plenty of other details on the sneakers such as the custom insoles from the animated Ninja Turtles movie. A closer look also unveils a hidden sewer cap under underneath the insoles. You also get hidden ?Ninja Power!? text beneath the tongue. Adding to the nostalgia of the release is the special packaging that’s similar to the ones you’ll find on an action figure you buy at your local toy store. Three sets of laces, White midsoles, Gum outsole, dual branding on the tongues and insoles, and even altered Trefoil branding on the heels are all welcomed additions to the design of the sneaker. As an added bonus, the sneakers will also come with an exclusive TMNT comic book for that that appreciate extras with their kicks.
