Footwear label Diadora works in collaboration with Adult Swim for this year's Week of Greatness campaign hosted by retailer Foot Locker -- dropping the signature N902 and B.Elite sneaker models in new iterations. The latest versions boast design elements that directly reference the television series 'Rick and Morty.' The N902 sneaker design is complete in a mesh construction serving as the foundation of the uppers in white with details complete in blue and yellow suede materials. The details recall Morty's character and his signature apparel, whereas the B.Elite sneakers reference Rick more so.
The B.Elite shoes have leather panels that draw inspiration from Rick's outfit, hair, and constant drool with additional details of the Diadora logo on the N902's heel and the burping mug on the B.Elite's heel. The tongue shows off the show's title and the time travel motif is seen on the insoles of both shoes.
