atmos and [adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/country-og-1) Originals work in collaboration to launch the G-SNK collection that spotlights the latter's signature [Superstar sneaker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superstar-breathe). Along with the captivating footwear offerings, the duo also launch apparel to match and compliment the sneakers. Each show is constructed from a hi-vis material for a textured and reflective finish before it is detailed with an intricate [snakeskin patterning](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snakeskin-colorway-2).

The two sneakers are made with a smooth reflective material across the branded Three Stripes and the eyestays. Additional details include some colorblocking elements on the G-SNK Superstars -- there are black details at the tongue badge, the branded stamp at the midfoot, and the heel. This contrasts against the white base, whereas the other R-SNK sneaker boasts an all-black construction. The apparel features two tees and a pair of shorts in similar graphics.
