Much like the preceding adidas SL Loop, the adidas Los Angeles takes an Olympic-commissioned podium silhouette and redefines the archival model years later for lifestyle purposes. Whereas the Loop referenced the adidas SL ’72, a model given to athletes during the 1972 Munich Olympics, the adidas LA Trainer was created for the 1984 Los Angeles games. That model was a little more rooted in performance than the SL ’72, but the three stripes build upon the unique rigid outsole for a new all mesh take that could be the adidas model of choice this summer. The aesthetic continues to impress, as today we get a look at a simple royal blue and navy combination. Grab your pair today for $100 from spots like Source: Sneaker Politics.
