adidas Originals and Edison Chen have expanded their ongoing partnership with the release or a new colourway of the CLOT Superstar by Edison Chen. Continuing the creative dialogue that has reimagined some of adidas’ most iconic silhouettes, the latest edition revisits the legendary Superstar through Chen’s distinctive lens.
Following the recent launch of the CLOT Mundial collection, the new Superstar represents another step in Chen’s evolving creative universe, where fashion, sport and culture intersect. Accompanied by a campaign starring NBA All-Star Anthony Edwards, the release demonstrates how one adidas Originals’ most celebrated sneakers continues to evolve while remaining rooted in its rich history.
Reworking an Icon
The adidas Superstar was first introduced in 1969 as a performance basketball shoe, and has since grown into one of the most influential sneakers in sneaker history. From its adoption by basketball players to its defining role within hip-hop and streetwear culture, the silhouette has kept a key position in adidas Originals history for over five decades.
For this collaboration, Edison Chen preserves the Superstar’s identity while introducing elevated materials and refined details. Coming in a combination of White, Brown and University Orange, the sneaker has a premium leather upper.
Traditional perforated quarter panels and leathee heel taba remain intact, while the signature serrated details appear across the eyestay and Three Stripes. Gold lace tips add a subtle finishing touch.
Anthony Edwards Stars in an Anime-Inspired Campaign
The launch is accompanied by the next chapter in Edison Chen’s anime-inspired creative universe, once again illustrated by long-time CLOT collaborator Annie Choi. Building on the visual language introduced in previous collections, the campaign explores themes of heritage, individuality and cultural exchange.
NBA star Anthony Edwards takes centre stage within the illustrated world. His appearance strengthens the connection between basketball culture and adidas Originals, reinforcing the silhouette’s origins.
Continuing the adidas Originals x CLOT Partnership
Since first joining forces, adidas Originals and Edison Chen have consistently explored the meeting point between luxury craftsmanship and authentic streetwear. Each collaboration has drawn from Chen’s unique ability to reinterpret classic adidas silhouettes without losing sight of their cultural significance.
The latest CLOT Superstar continues that philosophy, blending timeless design with premium execution and contemporary storytelling. By combining archival footwear, refined materials and imaginative visual narratives, the partnership continues to push adidas Originals into new creative territory while celebrating the enduring legacy of one of its most iconic models.
The adidas Originals x CLOT Superstar by Edison Chen will launch on 25 July through selected JUICE retail locations, the JUICE online platform and JUICESTORE.COM.
