adidas x SP5DER Superstar Supermodified Releases March 3
adidas Originals has partnered with Atlanta-rooted streetwear label SP5DER on a collaborative capsule centered around a boldly reinterpreted take on the Superstar silhouette. The collection arrives with coordinating graphics and will see a staggered rollout beginning late February.
The partnership marks a notable convergence of heritage sportswear and contemporary streetwear sensibility. SP5DER, a Los Angeles-based imprint with deep Atlanta roots, brings its graphic-forward aesthetic to one of adidas' most recognizable basketball models, resulting in what the brands are calling the Superstar Supermodified—a silhouette that moves beyond straightforward retro reverence into territory defined by deliberate design intervention.
Design & Execution
The collaboration extends beyond footwear into a coordinated apparel strategy. Alongside the modified Superstar, SP5DER has developed matching graphic T-shirts that underscore the collection's cohesive vision. While specific colorway details remain limited, the emphasis on boldness signals a departure from safe collaborative aesthetics—this reads as a statement piece rather than a conventional co-branded release.
The Superstar silhouette has proven remarkably adaptable across collaborations and reinterpretations. Where this iteration distinguishes itself is in the intentionality behind its modifications, suggesting that the redesign serves conceptual purpose rather than novelty for its own sake.
Release Timeline
The capsule follows a two-phase distribution model. An exclusive pre-launch arrives February 27 through KINGSPIDER.CO, the brands' primary digital platform. A wider global rollout follows on March 3, broadening accessibility across retailers.
This staggered approach has become standard practice within collaborative releases, allowing for initial community engagement and momentum-building before mainstream availability. The distinction between early and general access reinforces the capsule's status within both brands' ecosystems.
