The adidas Originals Gazelle Returns in Suede & Gum
What can you say about the ADIDAS ORIGINALS GAZELLE? Shoes have come and gone over the years, but the Gazelle really is one of the most classic footwear designs out there.
The recent reintroduction of the Gazelle brings back one of the defining shoes of its era. Many of us can remember skateboarding in the adidas Gazelle: it became one of the most popular shoes in the early ’90s era of street skating, adopted by many because of the lightweight uppers and flexible sole unit. Today, it transcends all boundaries as an all-round excellent design. The original design first released way back in 1966, but it’s the 1991 iteration that’s been getting all the attention recently. This version of the Gazelle is a little more streamlined compared to the 2000s version, resulting in a look that’s more akin to the original blueprint. The perforated Pigskin suede uppers are durable and stylish, with the leather Three Stripes and heel tab adding a touch of contrast to the clean lines. The rubber cup sole unit holds the heel firm without compromising flexibility. The Gazelle will always be a great shoe in any colour, but these two colourways – Olive Green and a peach-like colour entitled ‘Clabro’ – really rock the spot.
These two colours of the ADIDAS ORIGINALS GAZELLE are already out in the US: keep checking back with us to see when they arrive in the UK. In the meantime, check the current Gazelle collection at ADIDAS via the banner below.
