Consortium World Tour starts. One moment please: many know very well what we are talking about, while others will wonder: What? And so we pause a moment for a little example. For the uninitiated, ‘Consortium’ there is a kind of association, almost a club, which includes some of the best and most prestigious sneaker shop that sell Adidas. These stores work with the brand with the three stripes to create special editions of some models, which are then resold in the circuit. Usually they are born limited editions, often with truly innovative aesthetic solutions.
At the first stop we stop in the now legendary Kith of New York, the store fouded and thought by the sneaker-designer Ronnie Fieg, now virtually a living legend in the industry. A man who makes gold that touches every sneaker and with which many brands have started special collaborations (among many especially those of Asics and lately Diadora) –
Ronnie himself puts his hand to these Tubular Doom creating a really interesting piece. The sneaker is built on a sole tubular, one of the hottest trends of the season at home Adidas. The upper is made with a Primkenit sock fabric color cement grey, an elastic band and a reinforcing fabric of wool type ‘felt’. Heel engraved embroidery Just Us. These snakers are coming out today at 165 € in ‘Consortium’ stores.
