Summary
- adidas Originals and Thug Club have lifted the veil on their first, fully fledged collaboration, set for a global release
- The pair’s first collaborative release materialized back in April, limited to a Korea-only release
- For this season’s all-out offering – complete with apparel and footwear – the duo finds design inspiration in fencing aesthetics
Earlier this year, adidas Originals and Thug Club shook the world with their first collaboration back in April, albeit limited to a Korea release. Now, the pair is back in action for its first full-blown collection that sees their shared design language sharper than ever before, confirmed for a global release later this month.
A disruptive reimagining of the Three Stripes’ DNA through the lens of Korean streetwear, the foray spans apparel and footwear, with Thug Club’s distinct defiance dripping across a selection of needle-pushing outerwear and striking new Superstar silhouettes.
Finding design inspiration in the sport of fencing, the range reinterprets medieval influence through the lens of the sport’s modern Duelists to curate a delivery that’s energy transcends far beyond the fencing piste.
The adidas Superstar comes reimagined as a Superstar Boot Luxe TB sneaker, equipped with a custom shell-toe, leather upper, and co-branded metal emblem. The statement model is placed up against an equally rebellious recoding: the GSG9 Boot resurfaces with an asymmetric toe cap, an overdyed suede, leather, and Cordura upper.
Explore the full collection in the lookbook above, and expect it to drop for purchase on October 20 on the adidas Originals webstore.
In true to Thug Club’s brand ethos, the global drop will be followed by a Korea-exclusive drop later on, complete with a selection of limited edition goods.
