Shoe typhoon Adidas celebrates the release of a new collection of Superstars with a not so little surprise. In gigantic joining of the east and west Adidas brought NYC’s Surface to Air and San Fran’s Upper Playground together for a chance to turn a colossal shoe into a work of art. Each crew had 3 days to splash some color on their mammoth plain white replicas of an Adidas Superstar. This was an even more exciting celebration of Adidas releasing an all white model of Superstars, not seen since 1969. After the masterpieces were completed, the shoes were strapped down to a flatbed truck and each team set off to Venice Beach, CA for a battle on the boardwalk.Check out the gallery for tons of awesome photos.
