Lil Dre x adidas Centennial 85 Low "Core Black" IG1869

The Lil Dre x adidas Centennial 85 Low “Core Black” IG1869 revitalises a classic 1985 basketball silhouette for the modern era, integrating elements of skateboarding functionality and distinctive visual accents. This collaboration with adidas Skateboarding team rider DeAndre Thebpanya brings a fresh take on the original design, incorporating a durable split suede and nubuck upper that ensures longevity and comfort. The colour scheme is primarily black, with contrasting pops of metallic silver and bold pink that add visual interest without overwhelming the shoe’s fundamental attributes.

Designed with skateboarding in mind, the shoe features a robust cupsole that provides essential impact cushioning. This design choice supports the dynamic needs of skateboarders, offering enhanced protection and stability during skate sessions. The adaptation of the basketball silhouette to skateboarding highlights the shoe’s versatility and suitability for various activities, ensuring it meets the practical demands of both sports and casual use.

Completing the design, the Centennial 85 Low includes a rubber outsole that delivers reliable traction on multiple surfaces, making it practical for everyday wear. The regular fit and textile lining contribute to the overall comfort of the shoe, making it suitable for prolonged wear. With its blend of traditional craftsmanship and functional upgrades, the Lil Dre x adidas Centennial 85 Low “Core Black” stands out as a well-rounded shoe that respects its heritage while embracing new influences and requirements.
