adidas Originals SNS GT “Tokyo” Release Date

Following the release of adidas Originals SNS GT “LA”, Sneakersnstuff and adidas join forces once again to tell the story of the original “Stockholm GT” shoe from 1980. The upcoming SNS GT offering celebrates the city of Tokyo, with the official colors of the flag of the city ​​- purple and white. With the help of costume designer Keisuke Baba and illustrator Jun Inagawa, SNS creates new retro-style sneakers inspired by the city’s strong casual football subculture and British influences.

The special-edition pairs arrive in hairy suede uppers with white leather three-stripe branding, gold foil “SNS GT” imprints to the sides, and tonal smooth leather heel tabs. Leather tabs arrive in a structured tri-fold makeup with vertical perforations and gold adidas branding. The design is completed with mismatched graphic insoles by Jun Inagawa and rum-colored Handball Spezial outsoles that fuse “archival innovation with a modern update.”

The SNS x adidas Originals SNS GT “Tokyo” will be available for $119 USD through the SRS app with pre-orders closing on June 10 and in-store at SNS Tokyo. Learn more about the design process and the story behind the sneakers on the Sneakerstuff website.

Elsewhere in the shoes, Stone Island and New Balance Tokyo Design Studio are readying a second RC ELITE colorway.
