adidas’ Consortium program gives its members the reigns to create nearly anything they can imagine with Three Stripes sneakers. This season, Taiwanese retailer Invincible is back with a new project, featuring a luxurious Handball Spezial.
The Consortium program from adidas goes through waves of activity over the years. The label is exclusively given to retail stores to create exclusive sneaker releases, with almost no limit to what they can do with their projects. The program was huge in the late 2010s during the Boost boom, and saw an uptick in activity last year with the Consortium Cup, a fan voting contest for new releases.
This week, we have an early look at a new Consortium release coming up, this time from Taiwanese boutique Invincible. Their silhouette of choice for this project is the Handball Spezial, giving the shoe a new reconstructed look with luxurious materials and a simple neutral color scheme.
The shoe features a plain white leather base, removing the stripes in favor of perforations to denote the adidas branding. The model’s overlay panels all have revised edges, giving them the appearance of being hastily hand cut before being sewn in. Toes and heels feature suede accents, while gold foil Invincible branding completes the look.
