It can be purchased online at adidas and the shoe was first launched at the Fall/Winter 2025 seasonal show presented at Paris Fashion Week. The model has been reimagined as the retro basketball shoe is angled in a way that can be described as a dress shoe as well. There are influences that nod to the designer's signature tailored sportswear. The sneaker has a discreet model which turns it into a [hybrid sneaker model](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1906l-1). It comes in two classic colorways, including black and off-white. The design has also been slimmed out closer to the toe box and midsole.
