[adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/humanrace-3) works together with [Pharrell Williams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pharrell-williams-and-adidas-originals) on a set of [Superstar Primeknit sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superstar-breathe), detailing the classic silhouette with breathable elements. The sneakers' upper is entirely crafted from intricately woven signature Primeknit materials. There are two colorway options that launch in light of the new season with the selection of either Dark Green or Auburn.

The two are seasonally appropriate and bring a slight pop of color to the traditional model. Branding details can be found at the tongue informed by embroidery reading "ADIDAS." This is followed by "HUMAN RACE" at the heel area and a small hanging Trefoil label that decorates the medial side of the shoe's collar. It is adjusted by striped rope laces that weave through the Primeknit shell-toe.
