STAFF PICK. 1
adidas Anthony Edwards 1 Low
The Anthony Edwards 1 is easily one of the most significant debut signature basketball shoes in recent memory. A huge part of its success has come from Edwards’ starpower and adidas’ clever marketing, but even in a vacuum, the shoe’s futuristic design and top-tier tech make it a winner. The low-top “Iron Metallic” colorway catches our eye with its compelling iridescent finish, available now alongside several other looks on the adidas website.


STAFF PICK. 2
adidas Sambae
The adidas Samba has been inescapable on sidewalks and inspo albums alike in recent years, but the Three Stripes is (literally) taking things to a new level. The adidas Sambae maintains the sleek athletic body of the soccer icon, but brings new attitude with a platform sole. Up top, the Sambae doubles down on the historic silhouette with premium detailing: virtually seamless black leather and embroidered Three Stripes branding reinforce the style you know and love. Catch the Sambae in this OG-inspired look or check a range of other classic colorways.


STAFF PICK. 3
adidas Gazelle


Rock stars, hip-hop artists, and an everpresent army of soccer fanatics have made the adidas Gazelle Indoor a cross-cultural icon. Our pick features “Olive Strata” suede for that contemporary aesthetic, complete with white hits on the Three Stripes and backtab. The beloved t-toe overlay rounds out the upper, while trefoil-patterned gum soles land underfoot. Can’t go wrong.
STAFF PICK. 4
adidas Taekwondo
Kick it in style. Inspired by classic martial arts footwear, the adidas Taekwondo has all the ingredients that make up the ideal lifestyle casual shoe. A streamlined design, a low-profile rubber sole, and soft and smooth leather make these the perfect alternative to the brand’s more mainstream silhouettes. Grab ‘em in laced and slip-on versions with that appears to be an endless assortment of colors.


STAFF PICK. 5

Holding onto the iconic shell toe that brought it more than 50 years of streetwear dominance, the adidas Superstar suits up in denim, ready to slide seamlessly into dressier looks.. Two shades of the durable material drape the upper, while true-to-life rivets and chain stitching drive home full commitment to this new life. If there’s any shoe in the Three Stripes archives that proves you can teach an old dog new tricks, it’s the Superstar – check for this colorway and a full range of additional options below.
