Adidas and Australian-based boutique, Up There, teamed up to release a new silhouette honouring their home city of Melbourne. The Adidas Melbourne features a white mesh base, with suede and leather overlays which are inspired by a track spike worn during the 1956 Melbourne Olympics. Tune into the review for an early look and to see how they are on feet. Anyone else looking to grab these?
As part of Kith and Adidas Originals fall 2023 lineup, I picked up one of the shoes that released – the Rod Laver. Named after the Australian tennis great, this shoe dates back to the 70s and has been more of a cult classic sneaker that has retroed a few times throughout history. This new colourway for Kith though is clean, minimalistic, and perfect for those not looking to boldly display a company’s logo on their feet.
