This adidas Archive Runner Traveled From Herzogenaurach to Houston
News Source : Highsnobiety
News Summary
- DIOS bridges two seemingly opposite Texan identity pillars: the chrome-laden, low-slung slab car culture of downtown Houston and the rugged heritage of the modern Texas cowboy.
- By replacing standard mesh layers with rich, heavily textured leathers and a sleek zippered shroud, DIOS elevates the runner’s technical frame into luxury territory.
- The upper is wrapped in a blacked-out, premium tumbled leather accented by embossed mudguards and deep boot-inspired embossing along the lace bed.
When independent streetwear outfit DIOS (Did It Ourselves) linked up with adidas for a wearaway Superstar XLG, it proved that the local Houston movement was ready for global prime time.
