Stealthy Collaborative Bowling Shoes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Dover Street Market, Brain Dead, & adidas Drop a Bowling Shoe

— February 3, 2025 — Fashion
Dover Street Market participates in a three-way collaboration alongside Brain Dead and adidas Originals on a pair of Bowling Shoes. The silhouette is doused in a stealthy Core Black colorway palette which is launching for Spring 2025. The newest edition revives the 70s model with a modern twist.

The new Core Black hue is made with premium leather materials in a black hue with soft white to add some tonal contrast and continues with the exposed stitching. The branding arrives in the form of the Three Stripes motif that can be seen on the panel. More co-branding details are on the ankle in a gold hue, with insoles, and monochromatic heel accents applied by embossing.
