Last month we gave you first look at the adidas Superstar (Diamond Pack) that was produced to coincide with the 60 Years of Soles and Stripes celebration. Leave it to Sneaker Freaker to actually be sent a pair to drool over first hand! Like a giddy Oscar-nominated actress we marvelled at the diamonds and lush packaging, preparing our thank you speech to the three stripe gods. With 0.2 carat diamonds embedded into the Superstars, these will be going straight to the pool room! The leather is quite nice too...
Available from adidas Originals stores in Oz and New Zealand.
2009 marks the 60th anniversary of the adidas classic and now-iconic 3-stripes, an emblem celebrating originality and representing adidas’ rich heritage. In homage to this, adidas Originals has launched a special edition adidas Superstar sneaker in celebratory bling. The anniversary edition of the 'Superstar 80’s Diamond' is marked with a ‘hand-written’ stamp of '60 Years of Soles and Stripes' on the side sole, commemorating the anniversary of company founder Adi Dassler’s introduction of the iconic 3-stripes in 1949. Embellished with a total of twelve 0.2 carat diamonds inserted in between the medial-side of the trademark 3-Stripes, the classic black and white Superstar sneaker is also replete with Swarovski crystals on its tongue, lace locks and shoe lace caps. It also boasts a Swarovski-encrusted detachable metal tongue ornament that can also be worn as a pendent; Engraved above the Trefoil on the tongue’s pendant is the inscription 'The Brand With The 3-stripes'.
