Blast from the past – the adidas Originals Japan is back once more

It’s time we all said arigato to adidas Originals because they’ve finally resurrected the Japan trainer from the vault.

The Japan is one of the 3-Stripes’ most elusive trainers. It made its debut on the world stage at ’64 Tokyo Olympics and was one of the brand’s very first low-profile training silhouettes.

Painted in the same stark white and bold red hues as its namesake’s national flag, this premium iteration lands with buttery-soft kangaroo leather across the top for broken-in comfort from the moment you slip them on. A white leather pull tab at the heel makes taking the pair off and on a breeze, and branding-wise the model’s Japan moniker decorates the sidewall in a green shade for a contrasting finish.

We’re glad to be welcoming it back.
