British footwear retail label 'size?' tapped to German sportswear label adidas Originals to celebrate St. Patrick's Day with the revival of the archive Dublin silhouette. The Irish holiday initiates a return of the archival silhouette that was first released in 1976 then again as a part of the City Series. The shoe still boasts the same shape as the London, Koln and Berlin shoes in the City Series.
The new adidas Originals Dublin silhouettes are constructed from a smooth suede upper, completely covered in an Emerald Green colorway as a nod to the Irish holiday. The St. Patrick's Day concept translates onto the insole as well, where there is a repetitive Shamrock print. The adidas Originals stripes are constructed in white leather and the shoe rests on a solid black midsole unit.
