adidas works in collaboration with South Park as the two release a restock of the Campus 80 sneaker model that launched back in 2021 in the Towelie colorway palette. This referenced the cannabis holiday of 4/20 and very quickly sold out at the time of its release.
The shoes retain their original towel-esque terry look material throughout the upper. It has other details including a hidden stash pocket and Towelie eyes that actually turn red under a UV light. The soft blue true to the character's color is the main hue at the upper. It is then rounded out by the heel branding and Three stripes branding in white leather material for a touch of tonal contrast.
