‘Hu is short for human – human being, human race, humankind, but Hu, itself is also a reference to color. As human beings, we all have a color. We all look different, we all speak different languages, but we’re all connected.’ - Pharrell Williams

With the launch of Hu, Pharrell looks to shine a spotlight on communities around the world, sharing stories and traditions of humanity. In this first collection Native Americans from North Dakota invited Pharrell into their community to share their stories of compassion and culture, carrying on traditions of language, prayer, celebration and knowledge from one generation to the next.

The BW Army originally launched back in the 1970's as a German army indoor trainer. Now, the BW Army sneaker is making a comeback. The sneaker is an authentic replica of a Vintage German army indoor trainer featuring a leather upper, suede blocking and a classic gum sole.

The BW Army sneaker comes in white and brown both pairs accompanied by tonal laces, a Trefoil logo on the tongue and adidas branding on the sole.

The fall-inspired Human Race NMD is returning once again in four new vibrant colorways; Pale Nude, Sun Glow, Core Black and Noble Ink featuring their iconic boost technology. Collaborating with adidas Originals, genre-defying star Pharrell Williams has reinterpreted the modern day hiker with a colorful twist.

adidas Day One

There’s a new day. There’s a new beginning. There’s Day One.

Change takes drive. adidas Day One is tailored performance for the court where making the shot is as crucial as making a statement. Our always-on, always-moving lives call for something more.

Intelligently engineered, Day One resides at the intersection of sports and leisure, placing adidas performance expertise in a lifestyle context. Each piece is executed with the key elements of style, attitude and innovation.

Inspired by the heritage basketball styles of the Equipment 93 series, these sneakers bring back the sculpted look and layered appearance of classic hardwood sneakers. A chunky rubber outsole adds to the vintage-inspired style.

The knit upper features synthetic suede side panels and the signature webbing tape 3-Stripes. A TPU support piece wraps around the side for a distinctive profile. Each pair comes with two sets of laces so you can switch up your style.

Looking to the legacy styles for inspiration, adidas Originals always creates something new. These Everyn Shoes draw on decades of experience and lay the foundation for the future of clean, classic court style.
Like many of the Three Stripes designs from the past, the Everyn combines aspects from old silhouettes but still manages to offer a refreshing take on casual lifestyle footwear.

Designed exclusively for women, these shoes have an all-leather upper with perforated 3-Stripes and nubuck heel patch. The vulcanized outsole features clean, exaggerated sidewalls and a rubber toe cap.

Since the 90s frenzy shows no signs of slowing down, Adidas returns this time with a Womens version of its Falcon in "core black/light granite".

The model takes cues from past Raf Simons collections with fabric patchworks in soft retro colors, adding a strong style to Adidas' summer roster of coveted chunky silhouettes.

adidas Originals by Alexander Wang are releasing their fourth and final drop of season 2.

The final drop offers three statement sneaker styles; The AW Skate Mid, an ultra-rich take on the classic suede skate shoe, is now available in Bluebird, a signature adidas Originals hue. The AW Bball Lo, which combines premium suede and full-grain leather with a Boost tooling and rubber outsole, is now offered in a dark Green Night.

The third drop of adidas Originals by Alexander Wang's FW17 collection is available in store and online Saturday.

This drop of the unisex collection of apparel and footwear consists of pants, tees, hoodies, jackets and robes. Remaining true to the collection, the pieces from this drop are highly functional and very fashionable with a pinch of streetwear.

Continuing their collaborative project, adidas Originals and revered Japanese streetwear label NEIGHBORHOOD join forces for a new capsule collection this season. Bringing NEIGHBORHOOD founder Shinsuke Takizawa’s unparalleled design perspective to a range of street-level sportswear pieces, the range presents pure 3-stripes design in Takizawa’s familiar monochrome aesthetic, in strictly premium constructions.

Subverting the boundaries between fashion and streetwear, adidas Originals by Alexander Wang is a unisex apparel and footwear collection inspired by the idea of overturning commonly accepted rules. Flipping branding conventions, adidas Originals’ iconic trefoil and “originals” logos are rotated upside down, becoming newly and defyingly symbolic.

Introducing Never Made, a revolutionary footwear concept inspired by the past, designed for the future. Past icons from the adidas archive are reimagined, as their soles are swapped with the brand’s most innovative toolings. Featuring eight distinct silhouettes, the newest adidas Originals footwear concept provides a window into the brand’s design process. Inspired by internal design workshops, which see the brand’s designers explore unexpected combinations, the collection is a manifestation of ideas into reality.

Tapping into three key decades of adidas archival design - the 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s – the Never Made collection explores the intersection of past and future, reinventing iconic silhouettes through the lens of the brand’s most innovative products.

Instantly recognizable 70’s aesthetics are reimagined through the Line of Descent series, which sees the COUNTRYxKAMANDA merges aggressive all-terrain-inspired detailing from two eras.

Looking to one of the brand’s modern day icons, the genealogy of NMD series revisits three key sources of inspiration from the 80’s, placing the silhouettes atop NMD_R1 tooling to create the MICROPACERxR1.

Turning to one of the most important decades in adidas Original’s recent history, the genetically Modified 90’s Tech series sees two iconic footwear concepts, Feet You Wear and EQT, brought firmly into the future - reimagined atop BOOST tooling to create the ZX930xEQT.
