    Anderson Bluu, self-taught graphic artist and Founder of Bluu Dreams Creative Agency, announced today his second partnership with Diadora to design two limited edition sneakers as part of the Ice Cream Truck Collection.

    The Ice Cream Truck Collection marks Anderson’s sixth and seventh sneaker release with Foot Locker and first partnership with Champs Sports. Two colorways of the Diadora N9002 will be released in the Collection: “Vanilla Cone” and “Chocolate Cone.” Both pairs are designed to pay homage to the New York City ice-cream truck and its popular soft-serve flavors.

    “It’s not Summertime in New York City until you hear the jingle of the ice-cream truck coming down your block. I wanted to create a sneaker design that felt nostalgic for people of all ages,” says Anderson Bluu.

    The “Vanilla Cone” is inspired by the popular soft serve ice cream flavor, vanilla swirl. The sneaker features a cream suede base with pink and blue leather overlays to resemble ‘rainbow sprinkles.’ Additional details include a melted ice-cream cone with a rainbow sprinkle design on the sock liner. The Anderson Bluu and Diadora logos appear on each heel.

    The “Chocolate Cone” is inspired by soft serve ice-cream flavor, chocolate swirl. The sneaker features various shades of brown on the exterior and a melted ice-cream cone with a chocolate sprinkle design on the sock liner. The Anderson Bluu and Diadora logos appear on each heel.

    Both sneakers feature a snow-capped woven label on the tongue and a yellow ‘Slow Crossing’ keychain to drive the ice-cream truck theme home truly. The Collection comes complete with a shoebox that mirrors a waffle cone pattern.

    To celebrate the release of the Ice Cream Truck Collection, Foot Locker will host an event at their Washington Heights community store, located at 605 West 181st St, New York, New York, on August 25th from 4 p.m. – 7 p.m. EST. Attendees will be able to shop the collection, meet Anderson Bluu, and enjoy three flavors of ice cream created by and in collaboration with Mikey Likes It.

    The Ice Cream Truck Collection will be released exclusively on Footlocker.com, ChampsSports.com, and select Foot Locker and Champs Sports retail store locations on August 25, 2022. The retail price is expected to be set at $120 USD.
