adidas works in a new iteration of its iconic Superstar sneaker model along with the talents of J-Pop star Daiki Tsuneta. The two deliver a muted tonal palette with an ultramarine making up most of the shoe's upper. It is seen throughout the base foundation of the shoe constructed from leather materials.
It follows at the heel section, midsole base, and shell toe unit. Pure white adds a pop of tonal contrast along the tongue banners and the branding Three Stripes. Additional details include the custom Superstar branding that is seen along the quarter panels in a gilded font. It is then rounded out by graphics on the insoles and clear treading at the base.
