adidas continues to grow its collaborative work with CLOT as the two unveil a pair of the Superstar Breathe sneakers model. Taking the classic silhouette, it is constructed with a breezy mesh material throughout the upper to embrace the 'Breathe In Breathe Out' concept that the original silhouette embodied.
It ditches the standard leather upper and mesh makes up the entire upper with the branded Three Stripes stitched into the body itself. It has low-contrast colors to form a more minimal design and each shoe has a balanced aesthetic. The right shoe is meant to represent 'introspection and inclusiveness' with bright green stripes and Chinese characters on the side. The left shoe nods to adidas and represents 'externality and dynamism' with mint-tonal stripes.
