Branded Retro Footwear Collections

DESCENDANT Joins adidas on a New Retro Campus Pack

— October 16, 2022 — Fashion
DESCENDENT works together with adidas Originals on the upcoming Campus pack of sneakers that highlight the adidas signature silhouette. It gets two new colorway options of either khaki or navy blue for the season. The uppers are made from a sustainable process and feature synthetic suede materials made in Japan.

Branding details the shoes in the form of logos along the leather tongue tabs and DCDT branding marks the side straps and heel tab through an embroidery process. Skate themes are added along the padded tongue tabs grooved inwards around the middle with co-branding detail printed on the inner leather lining. It also features the retro logo that reads “Adolf Dassler, adidas sportschuhe” and the "Give Life Meaning" slogan DCDT to round out the design.
