After the success of the first collaboration in 2022, adidas and Gucci return this season with a new Spring/Summer collection. The collection includes a brand-new take on adidas' most iconic sneakers: the Gazelle and ZX8000. The release also includes two slip-on silhouettes, namely the adilette and bathing slippers.
In the second collab, 'The Web' once again plays with the iconic white Three Stripes. Also, the GG monogram is once again combined with the Trefoil. Furthermore, the Creative Director's memories of the 80s and 90s are used as inspiration. Thus, the emblematic fashion house's motifs are combined with those of the historic sportswear brand, resulting in a series of hybrid looks.
