Falling in the category of things that were ahead of its time, the adidas Micropacer was exactly that.
Originally released in 1984, the shoe featured a futuristic "Metallic Silver" colorway and a microprocessor that measured things like distance traveled and calories burned, the shoe became a favorite amongst collectors and runners. The legend of the Micropacer has only grown and adidas Originals will be celebrating the 30th anniversary of the venerated shoe with a true, one to one retro. Slated for release on August 16, the Micropacer will have many long time sneakerheads reminiscing and a new generation of heads coveting.
