Adidas redesigning the Superstars this year and plan to desperate push them as the new must-have memesneak of choice for 2015, replacing Stan Smiths.

Do they honestly think it'll work? These shelltopped autistclog dadcore chunky pieces of shit didn't look cool in the 80s and they definitely don't look cool now.

I'm all for fashion going in cycles and retro revivals but your shellcap gradeschool gym class footbricks are never going to be in... sorry, Adidas friends.

For lows yes. I agree I never liked the shell toe on lows.

The good thing about shell toes are that creases on toeboxes can ruin the look of a fresh shoe and that prevents this.

The shell toes shoebox looks a lot better on highs and the pro modelsare a great example of this it balances out a lot better.

holy shit youre right
they look great as a hightop

>w2c all white superstar highs??

also ive owned my white and blk superstars for yeears and idk why adidas is just now trying SOO hard to push these as the next must have sneaker
and i never understood why ppl always compare stan smiths to common projects,
they're literally 2 COMPLETELY different silhouettes and shoes so idk why everyone uses them as alts for common projects

I'm not surprised that adidas is pushing for the superstars. The trend forecast points at reinventing classics, now that Stan Smiths and CP's has become eternally chic.

Screencap this post.

By the beginning of 2016, Superstars will have NEVER, EVER become a meme shoe. They will flop hard and stans, cheese pizza and sambas will continue their reign into the coming year.

this shoe is middle school tier
only retarded half turkish soccer faggots with nothing else going for them in life wear these.

I think the samba ones are a bit better at least but those are shit now as well since everybody says they don't hold up.

just another trend shit hyped by hypebeast/complex/yuros for the lowest income bracket, people who literally think nikes are too expensive.

yes adidas were the first in many things but being first doesnt mean the best. the people who buy into 2015 adidas get convinced by either thinking everyone is going to see their shoe through a dslr lens or a picture of rifraf wearing them

i dont see flux, ss, or beautyandyouth's ver blowing up anywhere now. the only time was during the ss launch
