In a rare addition to
#adidas Originals’ historic City Series, the brand with the three-stripes transforms the
#gazelle silhouette into a tribute to two of Russia’s greatest cities this season for the
#gazelle GTX City Pack – Moskva & St. Petersburg.
Using every element of the terrace classic’s design as a canvas to pay tribute, each of the two shoe’s colorways make reference to their namesake; for Moskva, a white full-grain leather upper nods to the original color of the Kremlin walls, while contrast red overlays bring the city’s iconic color to the fore. St. Petersburg’s offering then takes a darker seasonal turn in premium black nubuck, offset by collegiate royal three-stripes that references the city’s river, coat of arms and historic football legacy. Encapsulating the release’s celebratory nature, the classic
#gazelle foil lettering on the left shoe is changed to Cyrillic / Russian text, while the right shoe states the city name. A final touch, full Gore-Tex construction, complements the release with a seasonal materialization that befits the colder climates of two iconic Russian cities.
Global release October 7th, 2016, $110.
