Where to Buy Youth of Paris x adidas Campus 80s

adidas partners with streetwear brand Youth of Paris for a Campus 80 collab set to release in 2021.

Known for his crude approach to fashion, Parisian streetwear influencer Alex Lopez is the Head Designer for Youth of Paris. Lopez’s collaboration with adidas marks a major moment for Youth of Paris, as the brand originally started as a Tumblr page circa 2011.

Lopez shared first looks of the sneakers on Instagram saying, “Unreal to have my first own shoe in hand, the challenge was so exciting to design on one of my favorite adidas silhouettes. The material and details are crazy. Their properties get better with time, wearing them creates individual aging.”

The best part about this sneaker is that it’s effortlessly cool. It honors both adidas and Youth of Paris in a way that is true to both of the brands’ individual aesthetics. Lopez paired faded grey denim with black and purple stitching to give the sneaker a grungy, distressed look. What really gives this classic silhouette an updated edge is the Youth of Paris graffiti logo on the tongue and the chunky shoelaces that remind us of all our favorite skate shoes from the early 2000s.

The Youth of Paris x adidas Campus 80s are set to release on January 28, 2022. To purchase, visit the Youth of Paris Webstore. The price is unknown. For more adidas releases and updates on all your favorite sneakers, follow @NiceKicks on Instagram.
