Can sneakers be formal? Can formalwear be casual? At a certain point, you get used to seeing prom suits paired with the Air Jordan 11, but for sneakerheads of a certain age, there may never be a moment where the sight of a loafer under a billowing pair of jeans can be sanely squared away.
Perhaps noting the “horseshoe theory” similarities behind both extremes on that spectrum, the biggest brands have pushed their streetstyle silhouettes into far dressier side gigs, often with the heightened materiality to match. adidas’ embrace of that has come with their “Made in Italy” program, bringing the heart of luxury footwear. After leaning into the punch with all-black leather, the team steps even further in that direction with this all-brown edition, perhaps following in the footsteps of Edison Chen’s elevated catalog in a mainline fashion.
The adidas Superstar Made in Italy is beginning to pop up on retailers, with a wider adidas launch unclear (though a product page is already live). Hold your nose and be ready to fork over $410 retail if you’re interested in this upper echelon version of the shell toe.
