This latest release features a silhouette encouraging the wearer to reveal their inner selves. It is designed to help individuals discover spaces to connect with their emotions, the essence of who they are, and places they escape when they need a break. In the campaign, global superstar JENNIE invites us to embark on a personal emotional voyage by opening the doors of her imagination and desires. Set against a pristine backdrop with a muted effect, JENNIE creates her reality with unfiltered confidence, allowing self-escapism to shine through with her unique take on the brand-new sneaker silhouette.

These features make the Gazelle unique, inviting us to fluctuate between our moods with elegance and ease.

Adidas Originals and Edison Chen Unveil the Second Global Collaboration: The Sophisticated CLOT Superstar in Black

In an April report, Adidas Originals and Edison Chen have announced the CLOT Superstar by Edison Chen in black, the second global footwear release in their collaboration. This release is the culmination of an internal voyage that motivates us to elevate our fashion game and refine our style, drawing inspiration from Edison’s artistic journey.

Initially introduced during CLOT's runway presentation at Shanghai Fashion Week, the CLOT Superstar by Edison Chen is a contemporary interpretation of the Superstar that draws inspiration from classic suiting. It has now been reimagined in black.

The new style is ideal for donning in your neighborhood or on a wild adventure, whether a cool speakeasy, a cozy bookstore, or a chic runway. It maintains the essence of tailoring but is updated with sleek details. The modern twist is achieved by reimagining the iconic shell toe with exquisitely crafted hand-stitched ridges in premium leather. The midsole and outsole now feature a distinctive undulating sole, a visible black EVA wedge, and a sophisticated leather welt. Contrasting white adidas stripes and logo embellishments emphasize the immaculate black color.

Designed with sophistication in mind, the CLOT Superstar by Edison Chen is a collectible piece of footwear intended for wear in remote locations. It introduces a new level of elegance to the sneaker category. This collaboration exemplifies the immutable intuition of traditional suiting in contrast to the functionality of sportswear. The footwear selection of the collection is a prominent example of Edison Chen's vision and ingenuity.

The "Black Superstar" campaign invites you to join DPR Ian, Joyce Wrice, and Brent Faiyaz on a personal voyage through the House of Edison Chen. Their thoughts, recollections, and reflections bring the new collaboration's silhouette to life, giving the entire community a fresh perspective on EDC's House. This campaign pays tribute to heritage and establishes a connection with diverse cultures.

Explore the passion, motives, and perspectives that characterize Edison Chen's world by continuing to embark on the cultural journey with adidas Originals and Edison Chen's CLOT Superstar Black.

The CLOT Superstar by Edison Chen in black will be priced at USD 200 and available in-store, online at adidas.com/edisonchen, and through the confirmed app starting on April 8, 2024.
