While there are a lot of critically acclaimed sneakers out there, few have officially been recognised. END. Clothing’s adidas Samba, however, officially saw success at adidas’ Consortium Cup.

Inspired by the “Past”, as its name would suggest, this END. x adidas Samba draws its design cues from materials of the past. Exploring some of the earliest fabric compositions, this upcoming sneaker showcases traditional weaving-like aspects, most evidently through the fraying Three Stripes tapestry. The usual gilded Samba branding on the side profile has also been replaced with a cursive “Past”, once again signalling to the inspiration behind the design.

Take a detailed look at the END. x adidas Samba “Past” via the top slider above. The raffle for it is currently open via END. Clothing, while limited pairs will also be available at select END. Clothing locations.
