# Heritage Lifestyle Shoes Superkicks x Adidas Originals Samba Heirloom Draws from the Indian Peti By Amy Duong | Published 2026-08-19 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superkicks-x-adidas-originals-samba-heirloom References: [cncpts.ae](http://cncpts.ae/)  The Superkicks x adidas Originals Samba "Heirloom" reimagines the [classic silhouette](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thorn-samba) through inspiration from the traditional Indian peti, a handcrafted storage trunk used to preserve photographs, letters, jewelry and other treasured belongings across generations. The collaboration combines a [premium leather and suede upper](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samba-lt) with [understated metallic accents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handball-spezial-loafer-1) that reference the hardware and keepsakes commonly associated with the heirloom object. Rather than replicating the trunk directly, the sneaker translates its craftsmanship, materials and symbolism into a refined lifestyle design while preserving the Samba's recognizable profile. Originally introduced in 1950 as a football shoe, the Samba has evolved into a staple across sports, fashion and streetwear culture. This collaborative edition connects that longstanding footwear heritage with themes of memory, preservation and continuity through material-focused detailing instead of overt graphics. The Superkicks x adidas Originals Samba "Heirloom" will be released on August 29.
