Sean Wotherspoon, the man behind the shoe collaboration with Nike that shook the entire sneaker world has teamed up with their competitor, adidas, to bring us a brand new Superstar design.
Moving from one sports giant to the other, Wotherspoon has definitely been making wild moves, while very subtly revealing little pieces and clues of what will be included with the Superstar design on his Instagram, with nods to the environment, as well as comfort and quality, he explains his upcoming masterpiece in an Instagram post from February:
"Here's the first sneak peek! 100% recycled paper laces, cork insole with recycled composite padding, you get a small look at the rubber sole made from 10% recycled waste rubber, sock liner is made from recycled ortholite material, I could go on and on! Not to mention the entire sneaker is 100% Vegan friendly ♻️ ? SUPEREARTH by SW for @adidasoriginals";

While still remaining very inconspicuous on his Instagram with no official in hand or on-foot shots of the sneaker, we're left with super zoomed-in imagery and shots of the insole. Despite this, above you can see how the silhouette will hopefully be looking via @kickposters' impressive computerised mockups.
We know what we hope the sneaker will be looking like now, if it isn't the most Summery silhouette you ever did see! Stay locked to The Sole Supplier for all updates on the upcoming TBC Sean Wotherspoon x adidas Superstar 'Superearth'.
