Adidas Superstar II Core Black Cloud White

It is the Superstar in reverse: the Adidas Superstar II Core Black Cloud White swaps white with black stripes for full black leather with the Three Stripes in Cloud White. The shell toe stays, as does the strong contrast that makes the model recognisable from metres away.

The Superstar II has a lightly padded tongue and heel, which makes it a little more comfortable than the flatter Superstars.

• Upper: full leather
• Toe: rubber shell toe
• Outsole: rubber
• Tongue and heel: lightly padded
• Fastening: laces
• Style code: JI0079

Ideas for wearing it: black with white stripes calls for a 90s touch, such as baggy mid-blue jeans, an oversized white tee and a track jacket. For something more understated, straight black trousers and a grey knit jumper. With a black Three Stripes tracksuit the outfit comes together perfectly.

Care: clean the black leather with a damp cloth and apply black or colourless cream to cover scuffs on the toe.
