After dropping a cult-like promo video, adidas Originals and Alexander Wang debut their second drop of the season. As usual, a range of upgraded footwear accompanies the athletic-inspired gear.

Keeping in line with the first drop‘s off-kilter graphics and bi-color detailing, the new range offers plenty of reinvented sportswear staples. Inverted trefoils accent each item, with seemingly meaningless verbiage dotting tees and jackets. Offered in black or red, the goods feature adidas‘s lightweight poly blend for effortless hot weather comfort and cuts that blur the line between masculine and feminine. On the footwear side, a pair of runners offer BOOST midsoles and textural detailing in line with the pair’s collaborative AW Bball Soccer silhouette, while the Run Clean BOOST shoe is an elevated take on the sock runner sneaker.

Look for the new collection to launch on May 19.
