Adidas and nu-metal legends Korn are set to continue their fruitful collaboration with another collection this May.
Their previous collaboration celebrated the band's impact on the nu-metal scene and cemented their long-standing connection with the brand, featuring special editions of the Campus 00s and Supermodified models.
this year's collection sees the Supermodified return and a Campus 2.0, featuring distinctive "KoRn" branding prominently on the tongue and heel. The color scheme for this release diverges into a charcoal suede for the Campus and a deep brown for the Supermodified, each paired with green guitar pick hangtags that nod to the band’s musical heritage.
This year's offerings are also deeply inspired by Korn's mainstream breakthrough album, "Follow the Leader." The collection cleverly incorporates the album's iconic cover art into the insoles of the sneakers. It extends the theme into a range of long-sleeve tees, enhancing the nostalgic value of the collection.
While the aesthetic remains straightforward, the enduring relationship between adidas and KoRn provides a solid foundation for these releases, promising a blend of street style and rock nostalgia.
Fans of the collaboration can look forward to grabbing their gear soon, with the collection set to drop on Adidas Confirmed and select global partners on May 15th, 2024.
