atmos Tokyo, a stalwart in the sneaker collaboration game, is again flexing its creative muscles, joining forces with adidas to revisit a classic—the adidas Gazelle. Renowned for its imaginative and often thematic collaborations, atmos brings a fresh and meticulously crafted "Patchwork" aesthetic to the Gazelle 85, following its denim rework of the newly introduced Sambae silhouette.
The atmos x adidas Gazelle 85 Patchwork is an ode to craftsmanship and material diversity, boasting an upper that blends various textures and shades. This model breaks the mold with its assortment of short-haired and nappy suede, smooth leather, and velvety nubuck, presenting a harmonious yet eclectic mix. True to its patchwork name, the sneaker features an intentionally mismatched design—each pair offering a blend of tan, brown, grey, and white. White stitching accentuates the midfoot with a handmade charm, while the tongue and sockliner are bathed in a striking shade of blue, offering a pop of color against the earthy tones. Underfoot sits a semi-translucent gum sole unit.
The atmos x adidas Gazelle 85 Patchwork has already released in select countries in Asia via adidas’ website, with a drop via atmos Tokyo set for the coming weeks. As of this writing, the retail price has not been confirmed. Download the Sole Retriever mobile app for the latest on this release, as well as other exciting drops, raffles, and sneaker news.
