adidas launches a new Home Alone 2 sneaker that is inspired by the iconic Christmas film. It first came out back in 1992 and this year marks its 30th anniversary. To celebrate the special milestone, the brand launches a new iteration of the signature Forum Low sneaker model.
The inspiration behind the design celebrates the pigeon lady, honoring her character and innate kindness. In terms of the design, it is detailed in a color palette of grey, white, and maroon, which are influenced by her and her birds. The sneaker also has haphazard stitching that is a nod to the patched-up clothing. On the strap over the forefoot, it reads "As long as we each have our turtle dove.”
