adidas Superstar Lite LTO – Denim Pack – March 2011

It might surprise you to hear since these are in the Three Stripes pantheon just as Nike has models like the Air Force 1, Dunk and Blazer, but there simply aren’t any adidas Originals Superstars made of denim.  Nike Sportswear is regularly using the jeans material on their sneakers but the above pictured Superstar Lite LTO is following only two pairs before it.  You have to look all the way back to a 2006 air of Superstar II adiColors to find the last one and the first was ten years earlier and also the Superstar II model.  Pretty insane to think a sneaker synonymous with golden age hip-hop could have so few denim releases, so we’d expect these raw blue denim and grey/white pairs to sell out quickly when they hit retailers like CrookedTongues next month.
