After a year of debuting new silhouettes and iterations, adidas has returned to its iconic Superstar 80s for a reinvented take on the cult classic. Arriving in two distinct colorways, the release includes a “Running White” version sporting “Core Black” accents and a reverse black version donning white accents.

Utilizing a crisp leather upper, the shoe is accompanied by an enlarged take on adidas’s signature Three Stripes branding that marks both lateral and medial sides. Maintaining the traditional look of the Superstar model with an upgraded twist, these variations are sure to keep fans of the famed silhouette satisfied.

Both Superstar 80s in “Running White/Core Black/Crystal White” and “Core Black/Running White/Core Black” are priced at ¥14,000 (~ $123 USD) each and are currently available at Japanese retailer atmos. A US-based release has yet to be announced.
