Adidas Tokyo

The adidas Tokyo Black White (Women's), in women’s sizes, is a lifestyle sneaker featuring a suede upper in core black, bordered by a minimalist gum rubber sole that edges upward in a curved silhouette. Adidas’ Three Stripes branding accents the sides in cloud white leather, coordinating with the material’s repeat on the rear heel in an X placement. A white Trefoil-branded tongue and adidas Tokyo branding in metallic gold finish the aesthetic. As one of the world’s most prolific athletic shoe brands, adidas’ history dates to 1924. With this expansive catalog of historical styles to access, adidas’ modern-day designers frequently plumb the brand’s archives for styles to resurrect. The aptly named Tokyo was designed as a track and field shoe for the 1964 Olympic Games, the first to be held in Asia, in Tokyo, Japan. In our opinion, the best feature of the Tokyo is its sole, which reintroduces long unseen vintage styling. The adidas Tokyo Black White (Women's) released on September 28, 2024, and retailed at $90.
