Bringing together both ends of the adidas Originals‘ technology spectrum, the I-5923 is the latest addition to the Boost family. Channeling aspects of past icons, the upper of the I-5923 brings back memories of shoes gone by, using signature design features exclusive to the brand and updating them for the modern day.

Taking its name from one of the many vintage articles within adidas’ extensive archive, the I-5923 is a hybrid shoe that features characteristics from classic 70’s runners, fused together with the latest contemporary technologies. The I-5923 returns for 2018 in a fresh, updated blue colourway that takes inspiration from the vibrant colour mix found in a Hawaiian Thunderstorm.

The serrated stripe insignia has graced the uppers of classic football styles such as Samba, Dragon and Gazelle, as well as runners such as the SL72 and certain members of the ZX family. The use of suede and neoprene also harks back to a heralded era in adi footwear, with new styles being born every year.

In the present day, Boost has gone on to become one of the brands signature technologies, featuring heavily within it’s running output, as well as dabbling in both basketball and skateboarding categories as experiments to explore the potential of the cushioning. This marriage of both era’s results in a product that’s fully representative of where adidas Originals are at as a brand right now; Using their strong heritage of product to inform their current direction and innovative product range.

The latest size? Exclusive I-5923 iteration features vibrant teal suede panels on top of a black mesh upper. Peach details sit along the iconic three stripes, and the seldom seen black boost midsole is finished off with a semi-transparent outsole.
