The latest [Adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adidas-x-snipes) collaboration collection is an artistic explosion of multiple talent. Featuring five well-known artists, this collection is one of the brand's most dynamic to date.

Pharrell and Adidas have proven to make a great team so it's no surprise that the 'Happy' singer plays a part in the latest Adidas collaboration collection. Along with Pharrell, Adidas also snagged New York City-based contemporary artist Todd James, Iraqi-British architect Zaha Hadid and New York City-based artist Cass Bird. Titled the 'Artwork' collection, this lavish sneaker line features 10 pairs of [Adidas Superstar sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-adidas-superstar-ii) that showcase a work of art by each aforementioned artist.

These shoes were made to be mixed and matched, allowing the wearer to be as expressive as the designers behind their sneakers.
