Last year adidas Originals released a faithful replica of an oft-imitate 1970s low-top first designed as an indoor trainer for the German Army. With a leather upper and suede blocking the BW Army has the same classic look as the original, right down to the gum rubber sole. The silhouette of the German Army Trainer inspired countless imitations, from the adidas Samba to the Puma Suede to Maison Margiela’s instantly recognizable Replica.
Tomorrowland is now offering a slightly more refined take on the trainer with an exclusive version of the BW Army. The Tomorrowland exclusive (¥19,440/$174.00) keeps the calfskin upper with suede overlay but elevates the details with leather metal tipped laces and white gum soles. Available now from tomorrowland.co.jp.
