adidas Originals Launch The "Luzhniki" Samba OG

The World Cup influence on the streetwear scene continues as adidas Originals drop a Russia inspired take on the Samba OG silhouette. The Luzhniki edition shoe comes as a tribute to the Moscow stadium set to host the 2018 World Cup Final in July.

Coated in premium leather that hosts classic Samba features including that statement oversized tongue, the "Luzhniki" drop is finished with splashes of scarlet and granite colourings to complement the kit of the Russian national team. A red star on each of the heels pays further recognition to the host nation this summer.

The humble Samba silhouette has been a mainstay amongst football terrace culture for decades, and the latest "Luzhniki" drop joins other World Cup inspired designs this month from adidas, namely the BAPE collaboration and NEIGHBORHOOD & White Mountaineering editions.
