Two of the biggest powerhouses in the world of fashion and sports have collaborated for the [Adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clot-superstar) Originals x Diesel Sneakers.

The Adidas Originals x Diesel Sneakers is, in my opinion, a dream match-up. As expected, the two don’t disappointment with all new styles that will soon dominate the market. All the footwear draws inspiration from “leather jackets, outdoor boots and the Diesel lifestyle,” according to High Snobiety. There are two high-tops and a made-over [Stan Smith model](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stan-smith-x-spongebob-squarepants) to fit the vision for this [collaborative effort](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gmbh-and-axel-arigato). Highlights include the plated emblems, flannel patterns seen in the interior and the contrasting materials of suede and leather.

Look for the Adidas Originals x Diesel Sneakers online on August 22nd and in-store a week later.
