adidas recently partnered up with professional boarder and artist Mark Gonzales to creatively enliven the brand’s Campus, a timeless model that dates back to the”Golden Age” of hip-hop music in New York City. (A couple of weeks ago, we previewed the adidas x MG Polson ST.) The shoe is definied by an intriguing zig-zag white/black pattern along the upper that’s accented by grey, black, and rust stripes. Gonzales’ ghostly logo appears on the tongue tag and is inscribed on the model’s middle panel. The skater’s signature reads vertically bottom-to-top, just left of the Three Stripes branding.

The 1980s was defined by the fall of the Berlin Wall, the ascent of good hip-hop, and the prevalence of questionable fashion and dubious rock music. Michael Jackson was “Beating It” and fashion-first sneakerheads were adidas-ed down. The ’80s proved to be a crucial decade for The Brand With Three Stripes, as the adidas Stan Smith, Superstar, and Campus all remained popular cornerstones on store shelves and on peeps feet. To properly celebrate the period, the brand is releasing the aforementioned models in the exact materials and colorways they released in nearly 30 years (Yikes!) ago in the aptly named “adidas 80’s Pack.” Expect to see the shoes at your favorite adidas retailer soon.
