adidas SPEZIAL AW17 Drop 2
We welcome the 2nd drop of Gary Aspden’s adidas Spezial on Friday 6th October. The drop features another four shoes, following up from the six which launched on 22nd September.
The entire range was shot by photographer Nick Knight and modelled by Drum ‘n Bass producer and DJ “Goldie”, a guy who is one of the few people to have done a Boiler Room set and hold an MBE. But before he became known for his Jungle bass lines, Goldie was big in the graffiti scene during the 1980s and continues today to be keen activist for the art style. So inspired by the man himself, we’ll be giving away limited edition spray paint cans with adidas Spezial orders, instore and online. Please note, there is only a limited amount available, so will be given out on a first come, first served basis. Each one comes in a co-branded box and filled with metallic gold paint.
Here’s a closer look at the footwear from Drop 2…
Intack SPZL
A different colourway to the first drop, the Intack SPZL takes inspiration from the 70s and 80s Freizeit collection.
Lacombe SPZL
Similar to the SS16 drop, the French Riviera inspired piece is back once again – the design taken from the Newcombe, originally a tennis shoe
TRX SPZL
A true 70s runner, the TRX SPZL combines a suede and nylon upper for a true vintage feel true to the original design.
Super Tobacco SPZL
A super soft leather upper and minimal tonal design, with minor refinements from the original archive product.
Drop 2 launches online 00:01BST 6th October.
