Adidas Originals Superstar by BAPE

This latest version of the Superstar comes in a third colorway, as a compliment to the previous SS21 colorways. Each pair features asymmetrical branding across the upper, as the BAPE shooting star graphic shares positioning with adidas' three stripes. Additional co-branding appears on the tongue and heel, while a branded deubré completes the look.This third colorway continues the camouflage theme for SS21, arriving immersed in BAPE's signature "ABC" camouflage.

The ongoing collaboration between adidas and BAPE began in 2003, with the creation of a modified Superstar sneaker, the BAPE x adidas Super Ape Star. At that time, the partnership introduced a new mindset with the slogan, "Respect is mutual".18 years and numerous collaborations later, adidas Originals and BAPE One reinterpret the Superstar silhouette again. The sixth Superstar sneaker created between the two brands, SS21 winks at the BAPE “SKULL STA” sneaker, created 20 years ago and is said to be inspired by the Superstar.

BAPE (A BATHING APE) is a pioneering streetwear brand founded in the hub of Japanese streetwear culture, Harajuku, Tokyo. Since it was founded in 1994, BAPE's iconic camouflage pattern and signature graphic tees have fascinated and influenced the streetwear landscape in Japan and beyond.
