CLOT × adidas Taekwondo by Caroline Hú

adidas Originals and CLOT have joined forces once again, this time bringing designer Caroline Hú into the mix to reinterpret the Taekwondo silhouette. Hú’s take preserves the shoe’s slim, low-cut proportions, but elevates the aesthetic through straps that wrap the midfoot in a crisscross or ribbon-like formation, a graceful reinterpretation borrowed from dance rather than combat. Beneath that, the upper is debossed with muted adidas signatures, the T-toe block, subtle Three Stripes detailing.

Caroline Hú and Edison Chen’s collaboration speaks to balance: soft and strong, fluid and structured. In their release narrative, they emphasise duality, vulnerability as a strength, imperfection as truth and the shoe becomes a metaphor for that philosophy.

Three colourways anchor the drop: Triple Black, Soft Pink, and Off White. The black version keeps things moody and refined, while the pink and off-white deliveries use metallic silver accents and patent detailing to bring lightness and contrast. Underfoot, the Taekwondo’s classic low-profile sole remains, though the traction is extended across the entire base rather than being segmented a choice that prioritises consistency and wearability.
