adidas Originals x Jonah Hill Samba Pack
Following on from his Superstar release in July, adidas Originals have worked with Jonah Hill to create a new take on the Samba alongside a capsule collection of matching tonal puffer coats, chinos and shorts. Throughout its existence, the Samba has cemented itself as a timeless staple that can be worn in many ways and is Hill’s personal choice from the adidas archive. Always ahead on the game when it comes to style off the court – adidas Originals have collaborated with one of culture’s most game-changing and of the moment creative forces, Jonah Hill, to present a striking spin on the timeless silhouette.
The Jonah Hill Samba creates an organic connection to Jonah’s own childhood influences, inspirations, and points of reference and follows a similar aesthetic as his Superstars. Bright hand-written branding features upon the leather uppers via embroidery on the mid-panel next to the iconic three stripes, while Hill’s initials have also been added onto the heel tab for a further personal touch. Crafted from premium leather and suede, the Samba looks back to the ’90s with the hand-written DIY like branding. The tonal aesthetic is continued with matching stitching, laces and classic rubber sole unit. Drawing inspiration from Jonahs own personal style, the collection is rounded off with a trio of matching tonal puffer coats, chinos and shorts to create various laid back looks for everyday wear all year round.
The adidas Originals x Jonah Hill Samba Pack will be launching at HIP on 14/11/20 online at 08:00am.

Celebrating Kicker’s 50th Anniversary Pack At HIP
To celebrate 50 years of Kickers, HIP has produced an 80’s-inspired editorial to pay homage to the cultural impact of the brand and nod towards an era when the Kick Hi started picking up traction in the UK. During the 80’s the Kicki Hi became hugely popular in the rave scene, first with acid house and then later with trance music. During the Brit Pop era and beyond, modern icons such as Liam Gallagher, Mike Skinner and the Arctic Monkeys all pushed on the Kickers legacy.
For Kicker’s 50th birthday the brand have reworked their iconic Kick Hi with unlined premium leather, cork detailing and heritage branding – just like the best denim, the leather will develop with you, changing colour and look as you wear it. The Kickers 50th Anniversary Pack, made up of three limited edition styles is online now.
