1970s Adidas Spezial trainers are back in black and yellow

Posted on | Leave a comment

Spez1

A low key reissue, but certainly an eye-catching one – the return of the Adidas Spezial trainers in a black colourway.

A shoe from 1979 that was designed for indoor sports, it's a lightweight number, this time with a suede upper and 'laser yellow' accents on the leather three stripe branding, throwing in a contrasting heel piece plus a thick gum sole to finish things off.

See the shoe from a reverse angle over the page. All sizes available, £54.99 is the price.

Adidas Jeans trainers get an exclusive Size? reissue

Posted on | 1 Comment

Jeans1

Last seen on the shelves back in February, the Adidas Jeans trainers have returned once more as a Size? exclusive.

As we said previously, Adidas Jeans was initially introduced in the late 70s, designed to be worn with jeans and was much-loved on the terraces in the years after. This version is faithful to the original, except for the exclusive navy/collegiate red colourway in suede.

Update: The colour pictured here is no longer available, but the Adidas Jeans have been reissued recently in two new colours. You can pick up both at the End Clothing website.

Posted on | Leave a comment

Perfekt

A sports shoe not seen very often – and right now you can secure these Adidas Perfekt GL trainers in their original box for a tasty £12.50.

According to the seller, this slimline shoe dates from the 70s, or possibly early 80s, made of a dark blue leather with lighter blue detailing and off white rubber sole.

They're a size seven and a half, described as 'as new' (possibly been worn once or twice) and looking incredibly sharp. If you're a collector or if it's your shoe size, worth a punt at that current £12.50 bid price. Lots more close-up shots at the listing page.

An exclusive landed in green a couple of weeks back and didn't hang around long, but now there's a Size? exclusive of the Adidas Munchen trainers in blue. It's likely to sell out just as quickly.

A classic from 1979, it was first introduced as a training shoe, but didn't take long to make it as a terrace classic. This Size? exclusive has an upper made from a full blue suede and nylon mesh panels featuring serrated three stripe branding and clean white laces.

Sizes are already selling through, so be quick – £59.99 gets you a pair. See another shot over the page.

Adidas Trimm-Trab trainers get a reissue in blue and gold

Trim1

If the bright orange reissue from August wasn't quite your thing, the Adidas Trimm-Trab trainers reissue in a contrasting blue colourway might well suit you more.

Yes, the last issue was orange with blue detailing, this time it's blue suede with orange (although officially described as gold) detail. But everything else is in tune with the 1977 'keep fit' cult classic. That means an indented white sole made of ultra-durable polyurethane, Ghilly lacing and gold foil print branding.

Available online while stocks last, you can pick up a pair for £54.99. Another shot over the page.
