Adidas Rising Star R1

After giving the Boston Super sneaker a revamp, Adidas have now given the 80s classic Rising Star sneaker the NMD R1 treatment, giving it a comfy boost sole, heel tab and lace eyelets, all reminiscent of the popular model. First released in 1984, the Rising Star was a brilliant runner ahead of its time, this new hybrid splices the two shoes together perfectly, resting the upper from the older model onto the now classic NMD sole. The result is another good looking old-meets-new Adidas mash-up.

Available now online at Adidas, or in Europe at Overkill.
