# Bowling Shoe Capsules adidas Bowling Shoe Pack Reworks Predator, Anfu and Changle By Amy Duong | Published 2026-04-10 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bowling-shoe-pack References: [atmos-tokyo](https://www.atmos-tokyo.com/lp/adidas-bowling-shoes)  The adidas Bowling Shoe Pack is a footwear capsule that adapts three existing silhouettes into bowling-inspired designs. The collection was developed by adidas and includes the [Predator](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/predator-freestyle), Anfu, and Changle models, each reworked with flat slide soles suited for lane movement. The project extends [adidas’](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/f50-silver-metallic) ongoing exploration of hybrid footwear by translating sport and lifestyle forms into a new context. The Predator model retains its signature fold-over tongue, bold branding, and wavy Three Stripes, applied to a black and red leather upper. The Anfu introduces a cleaner construction with cream leather and subtle gold detailing, while the Changle uses brown leather with pink accents and a suede heel panel. Each silhouette maintains its original upper identity while integrating bowling-specific sole structures. The collection was first presented during a Shanghai runway showcase and is scheduled to release through atmos Japan in April 2026, with a wider Asia rollout expected through adidas channels.
