Cincinnati-based retailer Unheardof is bringing forth another friends-and-family iteration of their adidas collaboration. A day before the release of the upcoming Rivalry Low Grandma’s Couch 2, which was crafted in honor of founder Phil Lipshutz’s grandmother Naomi, the brand has shared that they’re dropping an ultra-limited second colorway of the silhouette.
Coating most of the upper in a green hue, Phil and Unheardof took inspiration from an orchid's stem, symbolizing the growth and perseverance we all experience when facing challenging times. Specifically for Phil and the Lipshutz family, his grandmother Naomi's passing inspired the original Grandma’s Couch collaboration in 2023. Details from the GR version (which is still limited to 600 pairs) remain, like the handwritten note from Phil's grandfather to Naomi on the insole, floral details on the toebox, tongue, midfoot, and metallic brass eyelets.
