Neighborhood X Adidas Originals Make The Superstar 80s Look Better Than Ever
Consider this: what are the most well-known sneakers of all time? We'll all have our own opinions, but the Air Jordan 1, Converse Chuck Taylor All Star, Puma Suedes, and Three Stripes' shell-toed Superstar are all likely candidates. These silhouettes have stayed substantially unchanged and ever-popular, demonstrating their timeless quality.
The Superstar, as its name suggests, has served as a frontman for adidas over the years, becoming a generational subcultural icon. Much of this long-standing admiration may be attributed to the shoe's close ties to hip-hop, thanks to Run-D.M.C. and multiple recent collaborations with BAPE and Pharrell.
Collaborations have been crucial in keeping the sneakers relevant in today's world, and NEIGHBORHOOD has showed a special fondness for the style. In 2015, Three Stripes released a NEIGHBORHOOD Superstar to commemorate the tenth anniversary of Consortium, and the partnership has since been incorporated into several additional adidas styles.
For the latest collaboration between the two, the Superstar 80 is back in the spotlight, with a new spin on the usual white leather makeup. The remix has suede uppers with leather overlays, as well as hefty zip units at the tongue and zigzag stitching for a militaristic look.
The NEIGHBORHOOD x adidas Originals Superstar 80 comes in a monochrome black and white finish, similar to previous editions, but this time with a tonal military green accent.
