[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]At the beginning of the year, Jonah Hill announced the confirmation of his collaboration with Adidas. This talented actor, scriptwriter who also became producer and director, tells in his semi-biographical movie “Mid 90s” about this childhood in the 90s and his love for thé skateboarding culture. It’s therefore in all logic that the Adidas Superstar was chosen to make this project.
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of this historic sneaker, Jonah Hill recently directed the latest Adidas video called “Change is a team” featuring the brand’s famous ambassadors and advocating enrichment through exchanges between generations and communities.
The pair has a base in premium pure white leather. This material also covers the emblematic three stripes of the model which appear here in white and embossed on the sides of the shoe. The black colour usually used to form these stripes is found in the hell. More precisely on the hell tab and goes down on the hell cap forming a vertical stripe. On the heel counter, the model name “Superstar” is embroidered in black thread. The chosen letterpress is reminiscent of tags and graffitis.
To perfect the raw style, almost trashy, typical of the 90s style given to this collaboration, the wide topstitching on the heel seems handmade and the oversized laces bring volume to the silhouette. We can see a nod to the skaters and rappers of the 90s who wore this pair with loosen laces or even no laces like the Run DMC.
The iconic toe box of this model appears slightly smoothed, giving a “shiny leather” effect.
The only touch of different color is on the hell tab where Jonah Hill’s initials are embroidered in green.
The whole is based on the original off-white sole with its characteristic stitching.
The Adidas Superstar x Jonah Hill collaboration will be available on 10 April 2020 on Adidas.com and on the Adidas Originals retailers websites.
The advertised price is 140€
You should note that two other collaborative models based on the Adidas Samba should be released soon and would cost 110€… Stay tuned. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”30816″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
