Craig Green, renowned for his avant-garde approach to fashion, continues his successful collaboration with adidas by revisiting the archives to reinvent classic silhouettes. Known for infusing high-fashion elements into sportswear staples, Green has consistently pushed the boundaries of design. In 2024, the duo is set to launch the latest iteration of the adidas SQUASH model in three different colorways. This release follows the successful reinterpretations of other iconic adidas sneakers, maintaining the partnership's reputation for blending innovation with heritage.
The Craig Green x adidas SQUASH POLTA AKH showcases a fresh take on the original 1988 adidas SQUASH sneakers. The new design is characterized by its transparent upper, lending a prototype aesthetic that reveals the intricate inner workings of the shoe. Available in three distinct colorways—Brown, Tan, and Aqua—each variant brings a unique flair while retaining the core elements of the original design. The upper features suede details on the mudguard and heel overlay, adding a touch of luxury to the athletic silhouette. Craig Green branding on the heel, tongue, and insole highlights the collaborative nature of the sneaker.
Underfoot, the sneaker combines a rubber and foam midsole for optimal comfort and support. The cutaway outsole enhances the shoe's visual appeal and exposes the industrial colors and materials typically hidden in traditional designs. This element underscores the prototype-inspired theme and showcases the meticulous craftsmanship involved in creating the sneaker.
The Craig Green x adidas SQUASH POLTA AKH will release in 2024 through adidas and select retailers online and in-store. Stay tuned for the latest release date and pricing updates by downloading the nin Sole Retriever mobile app.
