adidas Originals is set to launch the new C-10 model next month and it's a blend of various signature sneakers from the adidas catalog. From basketball to running and high-end styles, the high-top sneaker goes outside the box and pushes the boundaries of traditional footwear categories.

"We always talk about what's that element that's new and different that sets it apart from everything else," said adidas Originals North American Design Director Brian Foresta. "That's ultimately where the shoe came from."

Pulling inspiration from Three Stripes sneakers like the Forum, Crazy 1, and ZX line, as well as architecture, the C-10 is a modern mashup of all these elements.

Look for the C-10 to release starting next month at adidas Originals retailers and adidas.com, in four different colorways for $90 each.
