Freelance illustrator Peter O’Toole and adidas collector Quote first met on the Crooked Tongues forum back in 2005, and their collective passion for the three stripes led them to collaborate on a series of posters detailing vintage adidas models with the help of Quote’s eclectic knowledge of the brand. adidas Originals eventually Adios notice and invited the pair to develop a limited edition book, what would become known as Quote’s Archive and their hard work paid off – now they’re gracing a retro runner with their respective magic. They chose the adidas ZX 420, as this pale blue soft suede and mesh combination was inspired by a rare adidas Denver pair from Quote’s collection. Hit the click to see more of what the two created, and know that while the shoe is set for a limited run at No74 in Berlin this Saturday, October 25th, the release will open up globally come November 15th.
