Following up an exclusive launch of his Adidas Nizza collaboration this past weekend at Coachella, Donald Glover and Adidas have officially launched their creative partnership, Donald Glover Presents.
Along with the previously seen Nizza, Glover's collaboration will also include his take on the Continental 80 and Lacombe. Each features a cream canvas upper with white accents. The designs put an emphasis the story that worn-in sneakers can tell. Various deconstructed details can be seen across the trio including tattered stitching, inside-out eyelets, Three Stripes made to look hand-painted, and raw edges designed to fray over time. Each also features a moth logo on the insole, a symbol of the project. Inside-out packaging and three extra sets of laces complete each offering.
"With this project, I wanted to encourage people to think about how their stories can be told on their feet. Value isn’t quantified by what you wear, rather the experiences from them. And you make the decision on what works for you, you live through your own lens. The partnership for me is about being able to exemplify what doing your own thing truly looks and feels like," said Glover in an official press release.
Footwear is not the only piece of the partnership between the multi-faceted artist and the Three Stripes. Glover also stars in a short film that premiered today and features cameos from actress-comedian Mo'Nique and Adidas team rider Na-Kel Smith.
The entire Donald Glover x Adidas collection will launch globally via adidas.com and other select retailers on April 26. Prices are as follows: Nizza ($80), Lacombe ($90), and Continental 80 ($100). Take a closer look at each pair from the trio below.
