Adidas Originals has been delivering nostalgia for 28 years, allowing so many of the brand's iconic sports styles to live second, third, and fourth lives as fashionable footwear. With spring on the verge of commencing, the division has revisited the Tokyo from the 1970s, reimagining it as a compelling model for women.
adidas 4d fusio semi frozen yellow hazy emerald dove Taekwondo Mei, the paint adidas Tokyo provides a low-profile option for those who've grown a bit tired of the Samba and Handball Spezial. Its thin construction harkens back to the model's origins in sport, which focused on shedding weight to ensure athletes could get through their training with minimal foot fatigue. The minimal outsole aswell offers an enhanced ground feel, starkly contrasting to the chunky adidas grand court zapatilla mujer ee8133 negras paint adidas Originals 3-Stripes Παιδική Φόρμα.
The Tokyo-inspired design was last alluded to via paint adidas Originals' partnership with Human Made, a brand founded in the early 2010s by NIGO®. Where history gets tricky is in differentiating between the Three Stripes' Tokyo and Tokio. Quick Google searches for both provide after-market listings for both styles, with the latter showcasing a vintage runner with more cushioning across the bottom half.
A newly-surfaced old-school design style further distances it from its performance past. A fabric construction takes on the bulk of the upper, which skews towards a tonal "Core Black" and "Cream White" finish, respectively. Profile 3-Stripes, tongues, and X-shaped overlays on the spine deviate in textured leather. Shimmering golden branding on the lateral side steals some attention, but it pales in comparison to the multi-colored flower embroidery that appears across the upper. This touch cements the pair as a compelling footwear choice for those looking for heritage in a fashion-forward package.
The women's Tokyo silhouette is available now via paint adidas.com. The shoe is available at a budget-friendly $110.
