Throughout all of Dragon Ball Z’s countless episodes and conflicts, the anime series’ most notorious villain has got to be none other than, Frieza. In honor of this character’s dubious rise to the top of DBZ lore, the Three Stripes will be using one of its top new silhouettes – the Yung 1 – to pay its well-earned respects. Coming dressed in an appropriate combination of pink and purple, one of this iteration’s top design details is a fiery red element acting as a make-shift lace dubrae that bears a striking resemblance to the show’s famed Dragon Balls – seven power-rich entities the characters strive to possess, for those not in the know. White and grey layering provide this offering with contrast, allowing for Frieza’s color palette to take center stage.

Like the entirety of this collection, branded details are not at a premium, as a custom set of insoles and an accompanying Dragon Ball box complete this commemorative sneaker. Sneak a peak at this adidas Yung 1‘s best look yet below, and stay tuned to our adidas Dragon Ball Z page for all the latest breaking news surrounding this particular offering and the rest of the hotly-anticipated capsule.
