adidas Originals Gazelle OG Red/White

Sometimes among all of the hybrids, collaborations, honorary colorways and special editions that happen so often in the sneaker world, you need to take a step back and bring it back the roots, the much simpler days. The Adidas Gazelle is a sneaker that first released in 1968, over 40 years ago now, but still is able to keep it’s place in the sneaker world. Even better than just a classic pair of kicks from Adidas, but these Gazelles feature the OG colorway from back when they were first released on the world.

For the upper on these shoes, almost the whole thing is covered in red suede. The Adidas three stripes are done in white which matches with the midsole as well as the inner lining, tongue and laces. A blue tongue tag is here to add some contrast to the sneakers. What do you think about this pair?
