I love the Superstar for the way it radiates as a classic icon; pioneering the connecting of dots between hip-hop and sneaker culture.
.
The legendary shell-toe earned its place in history when Run-DMC dropped their hit single “My adidas” in 1986.
.
My first wide eye moment however was Missy Elliot’s “Gossip Folks” music video. The female dancers had their three stripes jacket on and Superstar on their feet. I wanted to own a pair then, and I still feel the same now.
.
The reason why we’re able to celebrate Superstar’s timelessness and longevity is because of its versatility. For over 50 years now, it’s worked with any outfit, in any room, for any occasion.
.
This representation of classic is what I strive to achieve as an artiste.

Check out this timeless sneaker along with other Adidas footwear at Hundred% stores!
