After emerging in various one-off colorways ranging from “Scarlet Red” to understated grey, the understated adidas Continental 80 is set to arrive in a wide variety of colorways. An upcoming drop will deliver the covetable silhouette in no less than six distinct make-ups, with different iterations for men and women.

adidas‘ retro silhouette is given a bevy of seasonal makeovers, ranging from familiar mint tones to a cool-hued navy. As usual, premium leather informs the uppers, with cozy French terry lining on the inside set atop a rubber double cupsole. Laces match the hue of the upper, while contrasting bi-color stripes add a pop of flair. Midsoles and outsoles also frequently differ from the nuetral tones above, further distinguishing the retro-indebted capsule.

The full range of Continental 80s will hit global adidas Originals stockists on March 14. Take a closer look at the sneakers below and compare them to the original models, which initially dropped back in August.

Most recently, BEAUTY & YOUTH delivered a minimalist take on the retro sneaker.
