Messi is Kicking It with the adidas Gazelle!

Legendary baller Lionel Messi receives yet another stellar take on a Three-Stripes classic, and this time, it’s all about the adidas Gazelle. 

Following some strong takes on the adidas Samba over the past year, enthusiasts of both football and streetwear can get excited for what the alliance is cooking up next. Landing as part of the ‘Triunfo Dorado’ Collection (translating to ‘Gold Triumph’), the German-based label is honouring Messi’s indisputable legacy with a pack of two kicks.

Opting for a deliciously neutral palette that fits perfectly into an autumnal palette of browns and nudes, let’s take a peek at the details!

A Closer Look at the Messi x adidas Gazelle (IH8156)…

Dressed in a plush eco-friendly suede, this adidas Gazelle takes elevated minimalism to new heights. Sleek black leather panelling floods the 3-Stripes, outsole and heel tab, inviting a stark contrast to the creamy beige upper to ground the silhouette. Paying homage to the Messi-specific iterations that have come before it, the tongue expresses a moulded finish whilst proudly reppin’ the pro baller’s signature iconography. And the details don’t end there – with a gold embossed branding elegantly gracing each sidewall. 

Following a successful launch in June, there’s no sign of when these kicks will hit the UK just yet. In the meantime you can shop the latest from the adidas Gazelle via the banner below…
