SP5DER x adidas Superstar Red Releases March 2026

The streetwear collective SP5DER has partnered with adidas to reimagine the Superstar, one of basketball's most enduring icons. The collaboration arrives in a bold Red colorway, with a staggered release strategy beginning in late February.

SP5DER's aesthetic—rooted in bold graphics and hypermodern sensibilities—translates to fresh territory on the adidas Superstar, a silhouette that has remained largely unchanged since its 1969 debut. The partnership channels both the archival legacy of the shell-toe and the contemporary edge that has defined SP5DER's streetwear output across apparel and footwear collaborations.

The Red iteration signals an intentional choice toward high-impact color rather than subtle reinterpretation. Against the Superstar's clean court lines and signature toe cap, the bold hue commands attention without relying on heavy graphic overlays—a restrained approach that respects the shoe's foundational design while asserting the collaboration's distinct voice.

Release Strategy

Adidas and SP5DER are staggering the drop across two phases. The exclusive early access launches February 27, 2026, through KINGSPIDER.CO, SP5DER's direct-to-consumer platform. A broader global rollout follows on March 3, 2026, expanding availability to key retailers and the adidas ecosystem.

This tiered approach has become standard practice for high-profile collaborative releases, rewarding the core community before widening distribution. The week-long window between phases typically determines secondary market volatility and long-term resale value.
