Earlier this year, Edison Chen’s CLOT ventured into a new chapter with adidas, leaving behind its long-standing collaboration with Nike to explore fresh creative horizons. This partnership has already begun to bear fruit, with the latest release being the CLOT x adidas Gazelle “Linen Khaki.” Perfectly encapsulating the blend of traditional craftsmanship and contemporary style that both brands are known for, this is more like a piece of art than a piece of footwear.
The Gazelle, a timeless silhouette in adidas’ lineup, receives a refined makeover for this colourway. The upper is constructed from premium hemp, offering a tactile experience that sets it apart from regular releases. “Linen Khaki” suede wraps around the toebox, lacing system, and heel, while the classic Three Stripe branding is now done up in a series of individually-placed beads, all painted in “Light Blue” and “Blue Bird” hues.
Intricate stitching in matching accents runs along the midsole, inspired by a traditional pair of espadrilles. And while you might not realise it at first glance, the back of the trainer actually collapses inwards, meaning you can also rock these like a pair of slides.
The CLOT x adidas Gazelle “Linen Khaki” is a must-have for those who appreciate the finer details in sneaker design. Set to drop on August 23rd, let us know if you’ll be adding these to your collection, and make sure to stay tuned to Captain Creps for your best chance to secure your size!
