If you're a fan of manga, chances are you've heard of Initial D. A Japanese street racing franchise that began all the way back in 1995, it continued to drift into comic book stores around the world for almost two decades until it ended in 2013. To celebrate eight years since the last volume, BAIT has teamed up with the Three Stripes for the Initial D x BAIT x adidas Nizza Hi, and it's as speedy as it gets.
The second manga-inspired sneaker to come from the Japanese store this summer since the One-Punch Man x BAIT x adidas Montreal 76, this Nizza Hi boasts a crisp all-white colourway that's a nod to the Trueno AE86 that MC Takumi Fujiwara drives throughout the entire series. Three Stripe stitching runs across the laterals and medials, while "Initial D" branding can also be found along the sidewalls as well.
The front and back sports tyre tread detailing, while "Fujiwara Tofu Shop" can be found emblazoned on the midsole, finalising the special adidas design.
Expected to land on July 30th at BAIT Japan and specific US chapter stores, it's hard to say whether or not the Initial D x BAIT x adidas Nizza Hi will be dropping here in the UK and Europe, so be sure to keep it locked at The Sole Supplier for more news as it develops! Let us know what you think of this collaboration, and while you're here, you might as well take your best look yet at the Gundam x Nike SB Dunk High "Project Unicorn"!
