CollaborationsEND. X ADIDAS VELOSAMBA 'SOCIAL CYCLING'
23 April 2023Arriving at the tête de la course, END. and adidas head out on a casual ride with their cycling themed collaborative Velosamba sneaker pack, dubbed ‘Social Cycling’.
Inspired by the casual pastime of modern cycling clubs, the British and German brands look to the world of road cycling for inspiration, celebrating the hair-raising pursuit in all its glory. Presenting a duo of Velosamba sneakers, END. and adidas combine low-key style cues from the world of cycling with classic terrace footwear aesthetics.
Centred around coffee and beer respectively – two classic pit-stops for any seasoned cyclist – both make-ups of the Velosamba are constructed with suede from the Charles F. Stead tannery in Leeds for an elevated outlook. Refined for transitioning between time on the bike and casual wear, each model is detailed with reflective strips to the heel counter and a two-bolt cleat mount embedded within a reinforced midsole for the perfect combination of functionality on the bike and exceptional incognito cycling style.
Dressed in Legend Ink, Team Coffee and white, the first pair blend neutral tones to reflect the rich flavours and colours of a perfectly brewed cup of coffee. The second pair, in turn, look to the aesthetics of a bottle of beer for inspiration, combining hits of bottle green, vibrant red and tonal white hues to reflect a cold and crisp beer. Complete with bespoke END. branding to the insole and a hidden embroidered cycling motif to the underside of the tongue, the END. x adidas Velosamba ‘Social Cycling’ pack offers the perfect accompaniment for a casual bike ride with friends, whether you’re stopping off for a mid-way coffee or a well-deserved victory pint.
The END. x adidas Velosamba ‘Social Cycling’ pack will launch online via END. Launches on 24th April 2023.
