adidas x Pharrell Williams Tennis Hu | Pastel Pack | Releasing 10th of August

Pharrell Williams is a busy man: between performing and featuring in a seemingly endless parade of hit songs, it’s surprising that he has time for anything else. But fortunately for us he’s managed to maintain a fruitful creative relationship with German sportswear giants adidas, with the latest result being the Tennis Hu sneaker.

Taking the bestselling Stan Smith tennis shoe as the inspiration, the Tennis Hu boasts a simple yet effective design, with a one-piece bootee-fit upper in neoprene and mesh, lacing loops and colourful co-branded heel and tongue overlays, all sat atop a lightweight grid-pattern EVA sole unit with coloured rubber outsole blocks to the heel and forefoot for extra traction. It’s a modern, minimalist interpretation of a classic, and is just as versatile, working equally well with relaxed streetwear as it does with heavily washed jeans and streetwear staples.

Pick up the adidas x Pharrell Williams Tennis Hu in both Solar Pink and Green Glow colourways from August 10th at Aphrodite Clothing.

“Supecolor is a celebration of equality through diversity. With 50 colours of the Superstar, everybody will be able to select his or her colour.
