Building off their first collaborative collection released earlier in 2019, adidas Originals and OAMC have come together once again. For the first drop of Spring/Summer 2020, the iconic German sportswear brand and the creatively expressive menswear label have re-imagined the Type O-1 and Type O-2 sneakers in a flock of evocative new colourways, both built on the Supercourt RX. With subtle makeups in Mid Grey, Natural White, and an OAMC.com exclusive Camel, the Type O-1 returns emphatically. Meanwhile, the Type O-2 is updated in Mid Grey and Natural White, bringing contemporary palettes to the distinctive silhouette.
Standing out with aesthetic depth and contemporary character, the Type O-1 sneaker features rubber overlays giving the shoe an artisanal-yet-functional feel. The sneaker’s intuitive lacing system draws on mountaineering inspiration, perfectly complimenting its unique forefoot strap. Highlighted by a modern and clinical material combination alongside striking new colourways, the Type O-1 sneaker features a leather upper combined with textured rubber, zig-zag stitching, high-density grosgrain pull tabs, and 3-dimensional compression mesh.
Bringing a disruptive visual language to the table, the Type O-2 sneaker combines the iconic Stan Smith upper from 1972 with Supercourt RX tooling and a bold new colour palette. Emphasising functionality and precision, the unique silhouette blends archival cues with contemporary design aesthetics. With leather completing the material make-up, the silhouette plays deftly with notions of new proportion and luxury.
Representing a bold continuation of the adidas Originals by OAMC collaboration, all five new colourways will launch globally on January 23rd.
