CLOT x adidas Pro Model "Mineral Blue" JQ1260

The CLOT x adidas Pro Model “Mineral Blue” blends heritage with modern craftsmanship, giving fresh life to a sneaker that once ruled the hardwood. Originally introduced in the ‘60s and ‘70s, the adidas Pro Model was known for its sleek shape and durable shell toe. Edison Chen and CLOT have now brought that same DNA into 2025 with a version that feels both nostalgic and new.

This rework doesn’t just reissue the classic — it rebuilds it. The outsole switches to a ripple design, a subtle but sharp change that gives the shoe a more structured stance underfoot. Two layers of leather welting run across the edges, adding depth and texture while reinforcing the silhouette. Up top, premium leather forms the base, detailed with varied perforations that play with light and pattern. The shell toe remains, but with a smoother finish that leans slightly dressy — an unexpected yet refined touch.

Metallic gold eyelets catch the light, contrasting against rope laces that nod to outdoor footwear. Around the ankle, a padded suede collar softens the profile and adds warmth, rounding out the shoe’s balanced mix of luxury and function. Small branding details — the Three Stripes and a foil tongue label — keep the Originals heritage visible but understated.

The “Mineral Blue” tone ties it all together. It’s muted yet rich, the kind of shade that shifts depending on light, giving the sneaker quiet versatility. You could wear it with tailored trousers or relaxed denim — it works either way.
