In a surprising move last summer, Edison Chen’s CLOT shifted from its long-standing collaboration with Nike to partner with adidas. This transition marked a new chapter for the brand, bringing a classic European-inspired aesthetic to adidas' sportswear classics. CLOT's reinterpretation of these silhouettes blends traditional craftsmanship with modern flair, exemplified in the recent espadrille-inspired Gazelle and the forthcoming Stan Smith model. The latest release, the CLOT x adidas Gazelle in Linen Khaki Light Blue, continues this trend, offering a unique blend of materials and colorways.
The CLOT x adidas Gazelle Linen Khaki Light Blue features a premium hemp and suede construction, with a linen khaki hue dominating the upper. This natural is a canvas for the vibrant accents that set this shoe apart. The iconic Three Stripes are adorned with beads in light blue and bluebird shades, adding texture and a splash of color.
These hues are echoed in the intricate stitching around the tongue and lace set, creating a cohesive design. The shoe's sole unit draws inspiration from espadrille footwear, with blue stitching that ties the look together. The earthy tones and bright accents blend to create a fresh, stylish take on the classic Gazelle silhouette.
The CLOT x adidas Gazelle Linen Khaki Light Blue will release on August 23, 2024, through Juice Store, adidas Confirmed, and select retailers online and in-store. Coming in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $160. Download the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on the latest releases, raffles, news, and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
