adidas began with Adi Dassler’s obsessive quest to produce specialized sports footwear, and became famous when the West German national team’s replaceable studs lead them to victory in the muddy 1954 World Cup Final. The brand with the three stripes rapidly ascended to worldwide icon status, and the sneakers it produced for any and every sport were soon being voraciously consumed by style conscious youth, as well as competitive athletes. Today, adidas continues to exist on the forefront of cutting edge performance technology and fashion, while its heritage line draws from the nearly limitless archive of beloved classics.
Always in the spotlight, the Adidas El Dorado shoe launched in 1987 and impacted hip-hop culture and beyond. That impact is still alive and well, and this season's model retains its premium feel, with the hip-hop attitude, 3-Stripes, and smooth leather upper that made it famous.
