Known for bringing its sleek and understated aesthetics to adidas’ library of unique silhouettes, U.K. retailer END. reunites with the sportswear label to craft a plush pair of Torsion Super sneakers. The two-part offering comes together as a celebration of equality in the fashion industry with the pack titled, “Equals.”

Though the sporty silhouette appears to be an edition from the adidas archives, the Torsion Super debuted on the sneaker scene just earlier this year. Drawing design cues from the Torsion and ZX series, it presents itself as an amalgamation of the best elements of the late ‘80s models, featuring the Eurosuper’s lateral wave detailing and the Torsion system sole.

For the sneaker’s first-ever collaborative adaptation, END. elevates the retro-inspired design by highlighting its mix and matched features with high-quality materials and subtle colorways. On the first iteration, the retailer taps into its running inspirations, placing a Navy Blue spacer mesh body under a Dusty Pink nubuck webbed panel. It is finished with a double-layered three stripes in a rough Teal suede.

The second version in the pack goes more everyday focused in its design. As opposed to the Spacer Mesh underlay, it dresses the body in a smooth leather in “Off-White.” Adding to its premium feel, the nubuck paneling is tinted in a rich “Rust Red” and is complemented by embroidered brand logos in the same tone on the heel tab. Both models also feature the wording “Equals” in a cursive font on the tongue with extra branding on the lace aglets.

The END. x adidas “Equals” pack drops on July 28 via the END. Launches website.
