Nike Sportswear isn’t the only brand getting in on the action at the Australian Open. Hot on the heels of the Swoosh’s “Hot Lava” Air Tech Challenge II, colorful QuickStrikes, and matching Tennis Classics (not to mention a polka-dotted drop), adidas has unveiled a special edition of its Court Vantage — a silhouette that essentially reimagines the classic Rod Laver. Appropriately, the kicks pay homage to the prestigious tennis Grand Slam with a kangaroo leather upper — in this case opting for a clean combination of white and grey to let the luxurious construction do the talking.

Those in the area can find the limited release in-store at UP THERE this Saturday, January 30 while remaining pairs will hit the store’s website at noon local time that same day.
