Though they often employ experimental techniques, adidas generally ties such designs to a certain theme or campaign — be it Maker’s Lab or the bespoke Campus workshop led by three of the industry’s most talented artisans. Ostensibly borrowing from those creatives — specifically Helen Kirkum and Japan’s Recouture — the Three Stripes is patchworking together a retro inspired runner dubbed the SL 7600, a silhouette that fine tunes its series’ aesthetics with a paneling relatively true to form. As such, suede toes apply themselves along the upper in their typical manner, sitting atop a nylon base accented with the signature logos that cross down here in red strips. Elsewhere, heel wraps match that of the forefoot’s more visibly intricate texture, keeping in line with the vintage framework unlike that of the lace unit whose piecemeal components remind more of the EQT family. And, with further nod to Frankenstein, the imprint has melded a small trim of BOOST to the heel of the classic spiked tooling. Grab a detailed look here and expect to find pairs available right now at only a select set of retailers.
