JJJJound Tease a Duo of Made in Japan adidas Superstars
Few have been as prolific in recent years as . Establishing a reputation as a go-to source for style inspo, the Montreal minimalists are now hooking up with adidas yet again, this time taking the toolkit to the 1982 version of the for a drop that remains even more low-key than previous efforts.
A premium product manufactured at Team Trefoil's home in Germany, the Superstar 82 follows suit from JJJJound’s previous adidas and is composed of luxurious-grained leather uppers in a decadent and creamy off-white hue. As expected from JJJJound, simplicity remains the aim of the game, so all of the Superstar’s hallmarks are present here, including the piece de resistance: the shell toe. Elsewhere, classic black Stripes and a blacked-out heel tab work in tandem with the lighter uppers, while gold-foiled branding marks JJJJound’s co-sign on the laterals. A hint of the pair’s brown leather lining also wraps around the collar, once again calling back to the Made in Germany Sambas that dropped in April.
So far, the design studio are yet to tease the JJJJound x adidas Superstar on their own channels, but Montreal-based retailer SSENSE did subtly drop pairs on their site overnight. Rumour has it that an adidas CONFIRMED drop will follow, so stay locked for release info as it comes in.
