1980s Adidas ZX380 trainers reissued

Adidas_zx

1980s-style running shoes anyone? If that's a 'yes', then you are in look, Adidas has just reissued the ZX380 trainers from that very decade.

As you'd expect, it's a lightweight mix of mesh and suede for the uppers, a mix of white, off white and turquoise for the colour scheme, the latter for the stripes and branding. There's also a bio-mechanical sole, if you fancy doing a spot of jogging, too.

Limited numbers, with a price of £55.

Fiat_gucci

Fiat loves a special edition Fiat 500. Not content with launching the Ferrari version, a Diesel model and a convertible, the Italian car giant is now offering the Fiat 500 by Gucci in the UK.

First mentioned back in February, the car has been customised by Gucci to celebrate 150 years of Italian unification and the 90th anniversary of Gucci. Two variations will be available, a 1.2-litre model for £14,565 and the 0.9-litre TwinAir model, which will set you back £15,765. Both will be available online, first come first served, later this month.

Expect numerous special features, including the distinctive colour scheme, a mix of two-tone black with white interior or white exterior with satin chrome and black interior and the option to buy matching clothing by Gucci to go with your new runaround. None of which is likely to come cheap.

Beck1

Always a popular reissue, with the latest version of the Adidas Beckenbauer Allround trainers in white and grey already doing swift business.

This reissue has an off white nubuck upper, tonal suede mudguard, grey three-stripe branding and heel piece, plus gold Beckenbauer text and endorsement logo by the nam himself on the tongue.

Some retailers have already sold out, but all sizes are available as I type at the Adidas online store. Another shot over the page.

Adidas Samba trainers offered in two variations of white

Samba1

The Adidas reissues are coming in thick and fast. While it's far from the most rare, these new reissues of the Adidas Samba trainers will undoubtedly appeal to anyone who wants plain, simple and classic.

The original dates back to 1962, first produced as a football shoe, but probably better-known and used as a casual wear classic. These two new reissues (the other pictured over the page) use white leather as the canvas, with green or black detailing, a gum sole and suede toe piece.

If you want a pair, £55 gets you a pair directly from Adidas.
