adidas Originals and Edison Chen have unveiled their latest CLOT August Collection, featuring an innovative update to the iconic Gazelle silhouette. This fusion of Eastern and Western influences showcases Chen’s unique vision, blending sportswear with high fashion in unexpected ways.
The collection’s centerpiece, the CLOT Gazelle, reimagines the classic sneaker with premium nubuck details, a jute upper, and an espadrille sole adorned with blue stripes. This luxurious interpretation pays homage to traditional craftsmanship while incorporating modern design elements, resulting in a shoe that’s both sophisticated and relaxed.
Edison Chen‘s creative direction extends beyond footwear, encompassing a global apparel range that includes crochet zip jackets, shorts, polos, and rib tees. These pieces embody the spirit of exploration and escapism, drawing inspiration from the lavish resort lifestyle of Sardinia while maintaining a contemporary edge.
The campaign for this collection brings together diverse talents, featuring Spanish football players Vicky Lopez and Mapi Leon alongside Latin rapper Tino El Pingüino. This eclectic mix of collaborators reflects Chen’s commitment to bridging cultures and pushing creative boundaries.
Available from August 20th on the CONFIRMED app, with the CLOT Gazelle launching globally on August 23rd.
