adidas Originals x Lifelounge | All Day I Dream About Sneakers

adidas lifelounge all day i dream about sneakers 1 adidas Originals x Lifelounge | All Day I Dream About Sneakers

adidas Originals has worked with Lifelounge to bring you a book that showcases some impressive works of artist Fritz Träumer, entitled “All Day I Dream About Sneakers”.

All Day I Dream About Sneakers is a new collaborative project from adidas Originals and Lifelounge, inspired by the brand’s avid creeds of ‘Impossible Is Nothing’ and ‘Celebrate Originality’. The project showcases the story and kicks created by the world’s original sneaker freak, Herr Fritz Träumer – a mythical and enigmatic sneaker designer who dedicated his lifetime to constructing the most original range of sneakers ever seen.

A true visionary, Herr Fritz Träumer saw vast potential in the sneaker well beyond their athletic function and humble appearance. Absorbed daily in a world of sneaker design, he dreamed beyond the realm of possibility and quietly penned in a series of notebooks and journals, visions of sneakers that were truly out of this world.

In a unique collaboration with Lifelounge, adidas have published a limited edition book, exclusively available at sneaker retailers around Australia and New Zealand, featuring excerpts from Träumer’s private journals and imagery of his unique sneaker creations.

Pictured to the right of this post are images of his dream sneakers, some behind the scene photos of their creation and images from the celebratory exhibition at Melbourne’s Dakota 501 Store.”

Have a look at the impressive line-up of works by the artist after the jump.

adidas Originals x Jeremy Scott Collection | Part 2

adidas jeremy scott part 2 1 adidas Originals x Jeremy Scott Collection | Part 2

We give you a look at the second part of the adidas Originals x Jeremy Scott collection, after having showed you images of the first part a couple of days ago.

The line does not become any less wild and to be honest, we just do not see yet the mens stuff being worn on the streets. Leopard patterns, glitter and more can be found in this part of the range. We appreciate the aggressive approach by Jeremy Scott and the line is definitely a great addition to the otherwise basic adidas stuff that you usually see, but we are not sure if they went a little too far. The sneakers we can still see being worn, the clothing is a little more difficult. Images via TrashBag Aesthetics.

Anyways, make up your own mind and have a look at the second part of the adidas Originals x Jeremy Scott collection after the jump.

After giving you numerous previews of the footwear that will be released as part of the adidas Originals x Jeremy Scott collaboration collection, we can now give you a look at the clothing as well.

The collection offers clothing for both men and women and as expected Jeremy Scott uses all-over patterns, shiny materials, bold colors and makes an overall bold statement with the collection. Many styles can be easily pulled off by women, the mens stuff we find a little more difficult, but we are sure it will also find its fans. Via Trashbag Aesthetics.

Many more images of the adidas Originals x Jeremy Scott collection follow after the jump.

highsnobiety - Sam Flores x Upper Playground x Adidas Originals
This Thursday, August 7th, marks the release of the Sam Flores adidas Originals sneaker for Upper Playground. This is the final installment of the four-part series and the first hi-top sneaker in the collection. Other artists involved in the project include Herbert Baglione, David Choe, and Aesop Rock.
Fifteen years after first arriving on the West Coast from New Mexico, Sam Flores, an art school evacuee and self-taught illustrator, has established his place in the modern art movement as a master of fine art and product design. His fine artwork carries a voice and vision that is instantly identifiable. Flores’ artistic quality is unpretentious and provocative, and demands consideration without categorization.
When asked about his vision for his adidas hi-top sneaker, Flores commented: “I simply wanted to make a colorful bright shoe that would go well with the warm weather. I made it blue, grey and pink so it can work for both genders. Plus it’s something you can wear to Miami and stay up for three days and still look fresh!”
Sam Flores has collaborated with Upper Playground on numerous projects. He is currently working on producing two new vinyl figures with the company including one for Upper Playground’s 10-year anniversary.
There are only 500 pairs of the Sam Flores sneaker available worldwide. Each pair retails for $150 and sizes range from men’s size 4 to 13.5. To get your hands on the Sam Flores adidas hi-top, visit www.upperplayground.com or head to a UP retail store. The sneaker will go on sale online at 8 am PT on Thursday, August 7, 2008.
