Adidas AZX Collection

Saw this on my favourite on-line mag, highsnobiety.com, and had to spread the news to all you sneaker heads out there. Keep an eye out for these sneaks, their da dogs bollocks mate!!

This is the first part of the Adidas AZX collection, a massive effort by Adidas in which they have invited high profile brands and stores from around the globe to design their very own Adidas ZX model. This first part consists of collaborations with ACU, Bodega, Colette, D-Mop, Limiteditions, Foot Patrol, Goodfoot and Huf.



Details, Left - Right, Top - bottom.


1) San Fransico's HUF play tribute to the city's railroad history with the trainers white and navy railway line design. The attention to detail here is proper, allowing the railraod theme to continue with brass eyelids and a lacing stystem to represent the city's tracks.

2) The bold red colour and yellow accents compliment the chinese origins of these ACU ZX800's. The chinese theme runs through right to the silk like material used and the suede panelling. Even the ACU tag in the middle of the laces, a wooden jewel, are representative.

3) Canada's Goodfoot store have embraced Adidas's grum project with their environmental friendly sneaker. Lovin the recycled material used for this project. No carbon footprints here.
4) The detailing on these Limied EDition sneakers are to die for. Shabby Shabby Shabby. Even worth the trip to Barcelona.

5) The black and white of Parisian boutique Colette's ZX 3OO are as elegant and timeless as Paris itself. The play on words, that begin with the letter C is just as cool as Colette's itself. I spotted cool, complex, champagne and chance.

6) Furturistic or what! We always knew that Hong Kong was ahead of the times but these are like, supposed to be from 2010 or something. Wow. These D-MOP ZX 500's are metric, moses.


And last but by no means least, London's Footpatrol crew have come up with this creation. Ahh so reminiscent of the good ol' jungle rave days......
