Three Stripes Again

The three stripes are impossible to miss—almost too recognizable to see anymore. Mark McNairy did this collaboration with adidas Originals and 84-lab anyway, working with Kazuki Kuraishi on a fall/winter collection that’s just minimal and clean. Retro sneaker language, nothing flashy, no irony. There’s real discipline in that kind of restraint, especially in footwear design where it’s so easy to pile on details and textures. Just simple shoes that know what they are. They’ll be everywhere, probably. The kind you stop noticing because they’re so clean.
