The adidas Superstar II—or as it’s fondly dubbed by enthusiasts, “the shell toes”—are a certified classic. They’ve been posted both on and off the court for the better part of 30 years, and have retained an iconic look that resonates today. Adidas has mocked up a special pair of the Superstar II to commemorate the New York Knicks who were peaking when the shoe initially released. Though the Knicks may not have as storied a winning history as the kicks, they’re still a clean look. With an all-white base and a contrasting three-stripes logo, these shoes are as apropos today as they were in the 70s. The kicks are out now at select adidas dealers, so scoop a pair and channel the Earl Monroe-era Knickerbockers.
