Adidas Originals take on Japanese street style!
Adidas Originals once again collaborate with Tokyo’s Neighborhood to bring another fresh take on classic sportswear for FW14. Strong seasonal hues breathe new life into timeless silhouettes, fusing casual and contemporary with traditional tailoring and construction. This latest collection, which features both footwear and apparel, pays regard to the enduring originality of the two brands.
The long-term partnership between adidas and Neighborhood began in the 1980s when Neighborhood’s designer Shinsuke Takizawa was first introduced to adidas by RUN-D.M.C. The first milestone of a fruitful relationship blossomed in 2005 when Takizawa and adidas worked on the Consortium project.
“Creating a design that does not already exist was the original concept when adidas and I first worked together,” says Takizawa. “Our long-term relationship was forged based on mutual respect for product, innovation and reputation. To this day, that same concept is still at the core of our collaboration.”
Takizawa’s attention to detail, craftsmanship and unique sources of inspiration is evident in the new collection, which combines strong seasonal hues with timeless silhouettes, while fusing casual and contemporary with traditional tailoring and construction.
Inspired by the classic adidas footwear and sportswear, the adidas Originals by Neighborhood collection will be available for purchase from 11th October at all adidas Originals Concept Stores in KLCC, Pavilion, Mid Valley, Berjaya Times Square, 1 Borneo and supporting retails outlets Sole What, Crossover and JUICE.
