Jovani Hernandez Jonah Hill has solidified himself as an exciting force within men’s style over the last year, thanks in large part to tucked-in NBA jerseys and the ability to seamlessly transition from tailored tuxes for the red carpet to errand-running in downtown Manhattan. Naturally, then, his partnership with adidas garnered a lot of attention upon announcement. And while it’s yet to deliver the quantity of products that a Pharrell Williams’ Human Race has, Hill’s endeavors are gradually carving out their own lane. Case in point: An adidas Samba trio inspired by the 1990s.
The “Mid90s” writer and director hasn’t been coy about his love for the era that raised him, as the adidas Originals silhouette demonstrates. For his spin on the low-top model, Hill dips each leather, suede and rubber sneaker into three tonal arrangements – “Tech Copper,” “Mineral Green” and “Noble Maroon’ – all donning fat laces and embroidered, graffiti tag-like handwriting. As with the man behind them, the collaborative pairs strike the perfect balance of elevated style and subtle edge.
Enjoy a closer look at Hill’s three Samba propositions ahead, and find pairs available via the CONFIRMED app starting November 14th.
