adidas Consortium Rivalry Low in Chalk White & Silver

https://eukicks.com/2023/05/13/adidas-consortium-rivalry-low-in-chalk-white-silver/

Originally debuting back in 1986, adidas’ coveted Rivalry Low Consortium sneaker evokes memories of the mid-80s hoop scene, where the sneaker featured on the court to withstand the rigours of basketball. Taking on a classic colourway this season, a premium combination of chalky white leather and suede forms the upper, while futuristic hits of metallic silver dress the iconic 3-Stripes at the sidewall. An updated heel patch, a branded rubber cupsole, and signature Consortium branding on the padded tongue keep the heritage hardwood look going strong.

Leather & Synthetic Leather Upper
Rubber Outsole
Style Code: IF0603

The adidas Consortium Rivalry Low will release in this chalk white and silver colorway on the 14th of May. UK based END has the sneaker now listed for a raffle release through its Launches platform.

Hamcus x adidas NMD S1

https://eukicks.com/2023/05/17/hamcus-x-adidas-nmd-s1/

adidas has allowed a handful of partners to put their own twist on its NMD S1 such as Pharrell and RIMOWA. And this season, the brand is reuniting with military-inspired fashion label Hamcus to release its own interpretation of the lifestyle silhouette.

The Guangzhou-based imprint and the Three Stripes first unveiled their collaborative partnership back in December 2022 when they revealed a collection or technical and overtly militaristic apparel silhouettes that were built for winter. For this footwear team-up, Hamcus’ signature design language is evident in the pair’s look and build. Knitted uppers are done up with a dune-like light brown hue and feature pleated toe boxes and patch-like heel overlays, the latter of which is reminiscent of patches on a soldier’s jacket. The lacing system has been remixed with a black bungee cord and bolts have been added around the lace loops and heel tabs to spruce up the kicks with a more technical aesthetic. Down below, the semi-chunky sole unit is dialed to a similar brown hue to match up with the base.

Look for these to release on May 19 exclusively through Hamcus for ¥1,599 Yuan (approx $230 USD).

Crenshaw Skate Club x Nike SB Dunk Low / Preview

https://eukicks.com/2023/05/18/crenshaw-skate-club-x-nike-sb-dunk-low-preview/

After a brief butting of heads between Nike SB’s Instagram and sneaker accounts showcasing leaked imagery, the Creshaw Skate Club x Nike SB Dunk Low has since surfaced in up-close photos showcasing the collaboration’s many hidden details in homage to inner-city skaters.

Featuring our best look at the upcoming dual-effort yet, the LA-based banner has strewn a number of motifs throughout the heavily cushioned ensemble, bearing the club’s building block insignia along the medial tongue and tread at the heel accompanied by crisp white nimbus clouds to hit home the baby blue, sky-inspired outsole underfoot. Elsewhere, the brand’s playful font assumes the style of the tongue and heel tab logos alongside a burnished tie-dye finish executed along the insoles.

As far as the color blocking goes, the silhouette anchors the entirety of its upper in a clad-suede association. Introducing its base layer with an onslaught of light cream, graphic grip tape overlays surround the latter with scratches of mint green cast atop a dominant burgundy background. While pistachio hues conclude by rounding out the nylon collar and tongue tabs, the cracked leather mid-foot Swooshes enjoy a familiar color match to the icy blue outsole below.

Scheduled to release in October for a retail price of $130, in the meantime enjoy a detailed look at the upcoming Crenshaw Skate Club x Nike SB Dunk Low below.

Nike Air Force 1 Low “Oil Green” Colour of the Month for June

https://eukicks.com/2023/05/24/nike-air-force-1-low-oil-green-color-of-the-month-for-june/

Got your fave color yet? No worries. The “Color of the Month” series lets you feed your need while celebrating a little-known piece of Nike history—the original Color of the Month series, back in 1984, may have saved the AF1 from extinction. That’s right, a reissue was uncertain in the shoe’s beginning, but sports shops in Baltimore saw them selling like hotcakes and knew the AF1 would become synonymous with street fashion and culture. So, they asked for custom colorways to sell from their storefronts…and the rest is history. From pristine materials (update alert: allover suede) to the Oil Green colorway and even a shoe-cleaning toothbrush, this edition delivers a lesson in coveted off-court style. Every time you rock ’em, be sure to think of the visionary shopkeepers in Baltimore that made it all happen.

Footpatrol x adidas Originals Campus 80s: Echoing Past Collabs & 80s Terrace Nostalgia

https://eukicks.com/2023/05/23/footpatrol-x-adidas-originals-campus-80s/

This season, we recommence our long-standing partnership with adidas, unveiling our latest iteration of the adidas Originals campus. For this collaborative effort, we wanted to champion a real feel of 80s terrace nostalgia, searching through adidas’ long-listed lineage of fits whilst combining elements plucked from our FP archives to deliver an all-new lifestyle-apt feel to this icon.

Forming an important part of our design discography throughout our 21-year tenure, the Footpatrol and adidas collaborative journey hails back to the noughties with our first-ever pairing of the Consortium Superstar Vintage (2005), shortly followed by our first adaption of the adidas campus (2007), that hit our shelves in three newly re-tooled colourways (Burgundy, Mustard, and Iron).

From here we continued to pluck out some legends from the German brand’s archives including the arrival of our ‘Aqua’ ZX800 from the A-ZX series (2008), taking part in the Consortium programme with Hong Kong-based retailer JUICE (2017), not to mention our lauded Consortium Runner 4D (2018) and EQT Running Support ‘93 (2021).

Upon arrival, our latest rendition sources inspiration from all previous Footpatrol Campus collaborations. Landing in a muted pigskin suede build, adjoined with long nap hairy suede emblazoned across the toe box, which builds out the streamlined shape of the shoe. Tonal pony hair material grace the 3-Stripes branding on the laterals, whilst the medial removes the 3-Stripes exposing the underlayer liner material.

Dual tongues comprise of two different layers; the outer side takes on a pony hair build while the inner tongues (left – ‘Navy’ | right – ‘Burgundy’) draw inspiration from the colourways of our 2007 & 2011 Campus collaborations complete with Footpatrol branding in debossed form. We also pay homage to those earlier colourways through our co-branded ‘Mustard’ and ‘Iron’ painted insoles.

Doubled stacked heel tabs are gilded in a recycled snakeskin print with adidas embossed logos, while underneath, tonal branded 2002 & 2022 lettering as a nod to our 20th anniversary. As if all these details weren’t enough! The Footpatrol branding has been shifted from the traditional positioning and placed around the lateral ankle collar. This pays homage to the detailing found on the 2002 adidas Predator Mania (a customisation detail created for elite players only).

The Footpatrol x adidas Originals Campus will be launching in-store and online on Saturday 27th May (Available online from 08:00am BST).

HANON x Diadora Intrepid “Glorious Moments”

https://eukicks.com/2023/05/26/hanon-x-diadora-intrepid-glorious-moments/

Almost 16 years ago, James McFadden etched himself into Scottish football folklore following a famous night in Paris.

It was Wednesday 12th September 2007, and Scotland were facing up against World Cup finalists France on their home turf. Having already beat them in Glasgow the previous year, and with Scotland sitting second in the table with four games to go, the stage was set, and qualification for the EUROs was truly on the cards.

It was a cagey affair with both teams struggling to create genuine chances, until the game sparked to life in the 64th minute when Craig Gordon’s goal kick dropped at the feet of James McFadden. Deep in French territory, he turned towards goal and put his foot through the ball from 30 yards out. “Pick it out Landreau!” was the call as pandemonium ensued inside the Parc des Princes and in homes, pubs, and streets across Scotland.

Inspired by that famous night in Paris, HANON and Diadora reignite their partnership to present the ‘Glorious Moments’ Pack, featuring the Diadora Intrepid & Scotland ’07 Away Jersey.

Bold, with strong attributes, without fear, courageous; these are four synonyms for the word intrepid which perfectly describes our take on Diadora’s 1988 classic. Handcrafted in Italy, the HANON Intrepid is kitted out in a warm grey hairy suede upper with premium mesh underlays, lush dark blue nappa leather and bright blue pebbled nubuck overlays. A metallic gold leather Diadora formstripe teams up with gold embroidered branding on the vamp and heel, and additional branding can be found on both sides of the tongue label. The shoe is finished with an allover printed sockliner with gold foil branded stickers, and sits on a tonal VIBRASORB midsole with contrasting dark blue rubber outsole. Each pair will be presented in a custom box with branded tissue paper, two extra lace sets, and a James McFadden silhouette sticker.

The original shirt was worn as Scotland’s away kit across a two-year period for the EURO 2008 qualifying campaign. Instantly recognisable by its distinctive design as well as being the shirt worn for ‘that’ goal, HANON have worked alongside Diadora to recreate the jersey in its original execution. The white base is contrasted by the bold sky blue cross on the chest outlined in gold, and finished with updated badge and logos positioned as per the original. Additional branding appears below the badge to commemorate the moment in time.

The HANON x Diadora Intrepid & Scotland ’07 Away Jersey from the ‘Glorious Moments’ Pack launch at HANON via an ONLINE RAFFLE which will begin on Thursday 25th May and end on Friday 2nd June 13:00BST.
