Larry June's adidas Adistar Control 5 Collab Is Bound to Do Numbers

Leonard Eugene Hendricks III—best known across the globe as Larry June—is the latest person to have an adidas Originals collaboration.

A long-time fan of retro running models, the San Francisco-based artist has been featured in promotional material for the revival of the Adistar Control 5, a silhouette that debuted in 2008. Although inline styles have lead the charge for the sneaker's retro run, a number of collaborators will also be getting a shot at breathing new life into the design, with June being one of the earlier examples.

The 34-year-old entrepreneur's take on the Adistar Control 5 sees shades of orange and lime green come together with matte beige and shimmering silver to create an eye-catching ensemble rooted in heritage. Larry June's name replaces traditional logo elements on the lateral profile, cementing his place within the annals of Three Stripes history. Other nods to the pair's collaborative nature should appear on the spine, footbed, and packaging (good job, adidas).

Stay tuned for official product imagery and firm release details.
