Fashion imprint Fucking Awesome turns its attention to adidas Originals once again as it presents its own interpretation of the Samba silhouette. Jason Dill, skater and founder of the imprint launches the collaborative sneaker online today. At a glance, it is defined by its black colorway palette serving as the base.
Branding can be seen in the form of the Three Stripes along the lateral side of the shoe in white to add a pop of tonal contrast. Similar to the previous collaborations, the shoes are entirely constructed from leather materials for an elevated feel. Additional branding can be seen in the form of the FA logo on the tongue and gold co-branding that marks the midsole.
