The adidas Superstar “Berlin” Pays Tribute to the City’s Underground Music Scene

adidas shakes up the legendary Superstar once again with a subtle nod to the German capital. The “Berlin” edition channels the city’s underground music culture, translating the Berlin scene into sneaker form. A tough, blacked-out finish sets the tone, making this release stand out in the wider City Series lineup.

The upper features pebbled leather, giving the shoe a bit of depth through texture. Studded details appear along the Three Stripes and tongue, pushing the rebellious theme. A custom “Berlin” stamp sits across the tongue and heel tab, tying the sneaker directly to its name. Extra touches like the grate-style lace dubrae and custom hangtag reinforce the theme, adding extra layers for those who take note of the little touches.

Everything rests on a matching black midsole and outsole, keeping the palette consistent and understated while letting the detailing take centre stage. It’s a shoe built for the night perfect for anyone who takes Berlin’s techno scene seriously.

With its unique accents and all-black execution, the Superstar “Berlin” tries its best to capture the attitude of the city and by keeping things minimal and all black, it definitely has a bit of techno edge. City Series royalty in a blackout shell. Shout out your capital city crew! No scheduled release date, we’ll update when we know more!
