CLOT x Adidas Superstar "Year of the Snake" sneakers: Details

The sneakers have a premium look with an all-black upper that is made of different textures. The base of the upper is made of a Silk Royale textile and combined with suede heel tabs. The stripes have a snakeskin-like texture dedicated to the Year of the Snake theme.

Additionally, in between the stripes are six gold stars that add a pop of detail to the all-black upper. The upper also has gilded accents that give the sneakers their Lunar New Year theme.

These are not the only details. Edison Chen and Adidas went to fit the LNY theme for these sneakers. The laces are black but with a gold coin tassel that is usually seen in Chinese households.

As for the sole of the sneakers, it is slightly different from the usual Adidas Superstar silhouette. The CLOT x Adidas Superstar "Year of the Snake" sneakers have a rippled sole that is similar to Edison Chen's first Adidas release.
