Hartcopy is one of the most notable Instagram accounts when it comes to footwear and now the publisher is joining forces with Adidas on a special collaborative shoe of its own. The two join heads and take on the BW Army silhouette as the main foundation for the project.
It is a silhouette that stems from the 70s, delivering a touch of retro elements, and is worn by the army as indoor training shoes. The collaborative update honors the original design starting with a white leather build across the upper for a sleek and premium look. It rests on top of a gum sole unit for a touch of contrast -- this combination also celebrates the original colorway.
