Kicking It x Adidas Gazelle “Live Music” Celebrates Austin’s Vibrant Sound Culture

Adidas Originals has teamed up with Austin-based retailer Kicking It for a collaborative take on the Adidas Gazelle, titled the “Live Music” edition. The project celebrates the city’s deep-rooted connection to live performances, paying homage to Austin’s identity as the “Live Music Capital of the World.”

Set to release during a special store takeover event on October 11, 2025, at Kicking It ATX (3200 Palm Way #152, Austin, TX), the launch will be accompanied by DJ sets, mural painting, and local activations that reflect the spirit of Austin’s creative scene.

The Kicking It x Adidas Gazelle “Live Music” features a richly layered design with a palette inspired by stage lights and vintage concert posters. The sneaker combines textured blue suede panels with teal corduroy overlays, accented by golden Three Stripes and scarlet detailing across the heel and tongue. The orange sole and embroidered “Live Music” insignia on the heel reinforce its thematic nod to nightlife and performance culture

Distinctive finishing touches include custom lace jewels, co-branded insoles, and special packaging exclusive to the release event.

The Kicking It x Adidas Gazelle “Live Music” drops exclusively through Kicking It ATX on October 11, 2025, from 1 PM to 6 PM, with limited pairs expected to be available in-store.
