Bring joy, comfort, and happiness with the adidas Superstar Adv X Gonz Core Black and its “Shmoo bird” patches! This release is in collaboration with the American Professional Skateboarder Mark Gonzales and a contemporary artist. He’s known as Gonz in the sneaker fashion world because of his multiple collabs with adidas skateboarding team. The last time they camped together and rolled out Aloha Super, which broke many trefoil records. This time, the dynamic duo is focusing on a classic Superstar trainer and giving it a modern twist. The Shmoo bird details done by Gonz are unique enough anyway. However, the construction and the season-friendly design make it to the top.

What are Shmoo birds? If you have been in the sneaker game for a long time and followed Mark Gonzales’s artworks, you will he is famous for drawing the happy smiling bird. It’s actually an unidentifiable creature that just looks happy and is believed to bring joy with every appearance. That’s the theme Gonz went for. He has applied the design on many adidas shoes. Now it’s time for this Superstar ADV to rock those birds. Make sure to follow us on @FastSoleUK for more details.

With Halloween coming up soon in a few weeks, you can’t miss out on this Shmoo Superstar! This particular Superstar Adv X Gonz version wears the perfect Halloween theme with pitch-black upper and neon-tinged borders of the Shmoo bird patches. From the black base, those neon outlines make these happy birds look a little spooky! But they’re still smiling, so no worries!

First of all, pitch-black paints the entire silo in a monochromatic way. The tongue tab, laces, midsole, and inner lining, everything wears the black hues. Then you spot the Shmoo birds popping up from here and there. Each patch of the birds has different neon accents as borders. For example, purple, pink, yellow, blue, green, red, etc. The amount of these patches are kept minimal as Gonz didn’t overdo it.

As for construction, the black leather walls are extremely durable for daily rides and adventures. Smooth leather on the collar and inner lining contrasts the crinkly leather midfoot, forefoot, and tongue. The synthetic shell on the toe box adds maximum security to your steps. Likewise, the adidas Superstar ADV midsole makes sure your feet are comfy anywhere! And finally, the Shmoo patches finish off with suede.

adidas Superstar Adv X Gonz Core Black will release on October 9th via listed UK and European retailers.
