adidas Clearly Knows the Superstar’s Simplicity Still Turns Heads

The next iteration of the trustee adidas Superstar is arguably one of its wildest ones yet, just not in the way you might expect. 

The German sportswear giant’s latest drop, the Safari adidas Superstar II, created in collaboration with Japanese men’s lifestyle magazine Safari, gives the heritage runner an energy boost.

In this case, it's a safari coded in name only. No zebra or cheetah prints here, although let’s face it, adidas have already delivered on that front, instead it's the collaboration with the magazine that’s making noise.

This is a neutral lover's dream. Landing somewhere between a light gray and a muted blue, the leather throughout the upper is combined with contrasting beige accents in all the typical spots. 

While it may seem random, this isn’t the first time adidas has teamed up with the Japanese magazine. The "Safari" supervised Adidas Originals "SL72" sold out as soon as it went on sale this time last year.

It would only make sense to come back and whip up the same success with another of adidas’ legends.
