Los Angeles graffiti legend (and Dissizit founder) Slick pairs with adidas Originals for Spring 2010 to rework the Artillery Mid basketball sneaker in two colorways. The shoes feature Slick’s famous “nametag” on the tongue alongside various paint splashings and hand styles. Available now (alongside matching apparel) at select retailers including XLarge Japan.

Take the jump for a closer look at the Slick x adidas Originals Artillery Mid.

With Dallas heavy on the minds of NBA fans around the globe, adidas’ classic Torsion-infused basketball mid top – the Artillery – is given an All-Star game makeover. “East and West get red and blue respectively as highlight colours, while a brown leather panel [...] has a touch of cowboy boot in line with the game’s locale. NBA logos, stars and a coastal twist on those tongue details.” Look for these at select adidas Consortium accounts (especially those in the Dallas area) next weekend. Limited to 250 individually numbered pairs per colorway.

More flicks of the adidas Torsion All Star Artillery Mid follow after the leap.
