After several teasers, Packer Shoes has officially unveiled its next adidas Originals collaboration. Like the New Jersey shop's last Three Stripes project, this iteration uses the EQT Running Support '93 and takes direct inspiration from a vintage sneaker, the SL 80. The EQT runner is equipped with a light blue base, navy overlays, and striking red and gold accents throughout.
More than just a tribute to the upcoming 35th anniversary of the SL 80 model, the collaboration also represents Packer Shoes' appreciation for the group of people that have always supported its efforts. Proceeds from the sneaker will benefit both The Wounded Warrior Project, an organization that aids service members, and The Bradley Carbone Recovery Fund, a fund set up for Bradley Carbone, a former Lifestyle Editor for Complex and current adidas Originals Marketing Manager, who was involved in a snowboarding accident.
The Packer Shoes x adidas Originals collaboration releases next Friday, October 31, in-store and online at 12 p.m. EST. You'll also have an opportunity to purchase the sneakers on the same day through select retailers like Kith, Concepts, and Undefeated. Retail is set at $140.
