Adidas continues leather push with SPZL celebration
20/05/2024
The Decade pack is a an “ode to all things archival Three Stripes”, with four silhouettes reworked as anniversary editions.
The Garwen SPZL was originally inspired by the adidas Brisbane leisure shoes, and is updated in a light brown colourway. The upper is leather with matching suede accents.
The Lacombe SPZL has been reintroduced in white, chalk white and dark blue colourways. New features include a breathable mesh tongue with patent leather branding and a suede toe bumper.
The revised version of the Blackburn SPZL features a forest green suede upper, a navy tongue and flock stripes. The shoes are finished off with gold foil prints of the Lancashire rose.
The Ardwick SPZL was introduced in 2014 as an edition of 500 pairs in partnership with Manchester stockist Oi Polloi, as part of the first ever SPZL collection. They created overnight queues outside the shop and have since become highly sought after for adidas collectors. Staying true to the original 2014 version, the upper uses a reversed leather, giving individual fluctuations in the colour from pair to pair.
