Nice to see one of our personal favourites return to the racks – the Adidas Montreal 76 trainers.
It’s not a shoe reissued regularly, I have a pair in the wardrobe, but they do have quite a lot of mileage on them. Perhaps a good 10 years or so.
The shoes do date back a lot longer than that. As the name suggests, these were designed back in 1976 for the Montreal Olympics, specifically for the athletes taking part in the event. Note that collapsible heel, which made getting the shoes on and off just a little bit easier.
The reissue comes in two versions, one using the original colours, the other in a black finish. Both have a a suede upper, perforated round toe and that distinctive heel from the original design.
13th December is the date for your diaries at selected retailers, including End Clothing. Except the price to bed around £80.
