Adidas Archive Team GB Originals Collection

A reworking from the Los Angeles Olympic Games in 1984, the Adidas Originals team have pulled together a great collection of six pieces of apparel and three pieces of footwear. Daily Thompson is the lead for this line with 398 Jersey the centre-piece as a reworked T-Shirt.

OLYMPIC GAMES DALEY THOMPSON

The footwear really stands out with three classic indoor styles, the Gazelle, the Tobacco and the Handball 5 Plug, all in retro GB colourways. The Handball 5 plug is the standout for me and I partickuarly like the addition of the Union Jack on the insole.

Dropping in February at all the usual spots. Six months till the Olympics and I expect Adidas to come correct, with an unrivalled heritage having sponsored Team GB for god knows how long. If anyone does heritage sportswear well it's always been Adidas. Shout out to Charlie for the heads up and inviting us down to breakfast this am.
