The adidas Whalley Spezial pays homage to London's sneaker culture of the 70s and 80s by delving into its archival roots. Released in March 2019, this 'Active Blue' limited edition iteration reflects the past through its suede upper, tonal lacing, and iconic design elements like the T-toe and neon Three-Stripes and logos. Completing the retro revival, the gum rubber outsole displays a soccer-inspired tread pattern, providing a full-circle experience of nostalgia.
