For the Fall/Winter '24 season, adidas continues its successful collaboration with nu-metal pioneers Korn. Once again, it's all about classic sportswear silhouettes in matching colorways with a range of signature details and stylish adidas x Korn co-branding.

The superstar by adidas has long since become a legend, an institution in the sneaker landscape, and it's precisely for this reason that the name of this adidas icon perfectly describes its status. No other shoe has been embraced by so many people from so many different cultural backgrounds as the adidas Superstar, which is partly due to its minimalist design and partly to its exceptional comfort. Since the Superstar conquered the market in 1969, its influence on the design of athletic footwear has been enormous: for example, it was one of the first designs to be able to distinguish itself through clearly defined branding.

The adidas x Korn Superstar Korn's features include:

• leather upper
• rubber shell toe box
• soft and breathable textile lining with padded collar
• translucent 3 Stripes tapes with "Est. 1994" Gothc lettering printed on underlays at side walls
• foam-padded insole with adidas x Korn branding
• EVA foam midsole
• abrasion-resistent rubber cupsole
• Korn logo embroidered on tongue
• Superstar lettering in the distinctive Korn font embossed on side wall

The adidas Mad Iiinfinity is a futuristic sneaker that stands out both for its striking design and outstanding functionality. At first glance, the silhouette of the shoe is reminiscent of a dynamic four-man bobsled shooting through the ice channel – streamlined, powerful and ready for high speeds. But the Mad Iiinfinity by adidas is designed primarily for the basketball court, and this is where it shows its true strength: it is a statement style that reinterprets the basketball spirit of the 2000s while also being technologically up to date.

The upper of the adidas Mad Iiinfinity consists of a well-thought-out blend of mesh, suede and synthetic leather, giving the sneaker a structured yet sophisticated look. The use of mesh ensures breathability, while the suede and synthetic leather give the shoe a refined touch and added durability. This combination of materials not only gives the shoe an appealing look, but also makes it functional for the high demands on the basketball court.

The silhouette of the adidas Mad Iiinfinity is unmistakable: it immediately evokes associations with the basketball style of the 2000s, an era in which eye-catching, edgy designs and technical innovations dominated the basketball shoe market. With its clean lines, dynamic shapes and sturdy construction, the Mad Iiinfinity brings this aesthetic back to the present and pays homage to an iconic era of basketball fashion.

A key feature that sets the adidas Mad II Infinity apart from other basketball sneakers is the EVA midsole with TPU inserts. This construction provides an extra energetic feel by offering superior cushioning and energy return with every step. This makes the adidas shoe not only comfortable but also high-performance on the court, where quick movements and high jumps are required.

Other thoughtful details of the adidas Mad II Infinity include the soft, breathable textile lining, which adds comfort, and the hidden eyelets for the lacing, which give the shoe a seamless and smooth look. These small but subtle design elements contribute to the futuristic overall look of the shoe without compromising on functionality.

All in all, the adidas Mad II Infinity combines futuristic design with proven functionality and brings 2000s basketball style back to the present. With its mix of innovative materials, an energetic midsole and a distinctive look, it is the perfect shoe for anyone who wants to make a real statement on the basketball court as well as in everyday life.
