Future and retro collide in our Futro designs. We’ve stripped down shoes from our archives and rebuilt them to create future icons – grounded in history, and evolved for a new world.
Quickstrike, the popular sneaker series from Complex featuring Russ Bengtson and DJ Clark Kent, is making its return to the web. And to commemorate the occasion, adidas Originals will be releasing special editions of its classic Pro Model and Superstar.
The Pro Model’s main feature is its camo premium leather upper which is contrasted with black details including adidas’ signature three stripes, suede tongue, and laces. Metallic gold accents also provide additional pop and is used to highlight Quickstrike’s ‘Q’ logo and adi’s Trefoil on the back heel. The Superstar takes a more subtle approach, utilizing camo Stripes and trim, with a perforated white leather upper.
Vans was founded by Paul Van Doren. Van Doren, born in 1930, grew up in the Boston Area. At 14 he decided that school wasn’t really for him. His mother forced him into getting him a job making shoes and sweeping the factory floor at the company she worked for, Randy’s (a one-time Boston based shoe manufacturer).
