Designer Sean Wotherspoon works in collaboration with adidas Originals and recently unveiled a look at the SUPEREARTH collaborative design that showcases the Superstar silhouette as the foundation. The sneakers followed the designer's work with Nike on the iconic Air Max 1/97.
The SUPEREARTH demands attention with its bold design and sustainable values in mind. It is a vegan iteration of the classic Superstar silhouette as the construction is entirely free of any animal byproducts. It also minimizes any waste produced due to the use of recycled rubber on the sole unit. The upper is detailed with floral informed through both drawings and frayed embroidery for a loose look in a palette that features blue, orange, yellow, red, black, and green.
