Sporty & Rich x adidas Samba OG White Green HQ6075

The adidas Samba has gained a devoted following in the past year, and this new pair from Sporty & Rich shows us exactly why. With so much demand for the silhouette, the Samba will probably be the hardest to come by out of the three. Here, we see adidas provide Emily Oberg with a clean canvas to show off her artistic talent yet again. Today we take a look at the Sporty & Rich x adidas Samba OG White Green.

The shoes feature all of the necessary details and features to make them a solid collaborative pair. The 3-stripes found on the side panel have been hit with a court green, tapping into the athleisure roots of the Sporty & Rich brand. The silk name patch on the tongue gives off the impression that these are someone’s personal pair, hidden away in a locker at your local tennis club. The pearl key chain, which comes packaged with the shoes, looks like an earring worn by only the classiest of 80s female tennis players. This detail is inspired by the mood boards and campaign shoots which were a key part of forming the Sporty & Rich aesthetic.

The Samba really shines on the white gum sole as Oberg’s hand-drawn artistry is brought to life. Each pair of shoes has a unique design, and no two pairs look exactly alike due to the imperfect nature of hand drawing. The left foot features an abstract geometric pattern, while the right foot shows off Emily’s signature scribble.

Here is the Sporty & Rich x adidas Samba OG White Green release you've been waiting for! With their luxurious cream laces and classic gum soles, these fashionable kicks embody the "vintage sportswear tied with luxury" brand ethos.
