[adidas Originals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lathemed-superstar-ii) introduces another iteration of the signature Superstar sneaker in a leopard print update for the season. The unisex silhouette comes in two versions -- one of the sneakers is constructed from a Harako hair finish throughout the upper for a unique texture. It is then detailed with the aforementioned [leopard pattern](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adidas-samba-2) to round out the bold look.

The second sneaker sits on a black outsole foundation and toe box. The side of the sneakers showcase the sportswear label's [Three Stripes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hm-and-elf-cosmetics) branding. The outsoles are also crafted from rubber materials to deliver sturdy abilities during the colder seasons of the year. The shoes are exclusively available to atmos and are now available to purchase online for the price of approximately $130 USD.
