vintage ADIDAS equipment SHOT PUT shut put field shoes MADE IN WEST EGRMANY 1980'S us10.5

equipment shut put
made in west germany circa 1987
new in box (with defects)
US10.5/UK10

the mens shot put final is on this eve & i will be watching.... their shoes! something about athletic throwing shoes has always catptured my imagination. maybe its the fact that they could still be used for regular wear amongst the multitude of impractical specialty footwear we uncover, but something about the high rounded outsole gives them a hard style edge. zoom rotationals send me into a spin but if you know of adidas equipment then these need no intro. incredible construction & design driven atheletic aesthetics. the right shoes was used as a display model for a short time & are otherwsie a sure shot.

vintage ADIDAS shooting SPECIAL spezial hi-top MADE IN WEST GERMANY





vintage adidas
shooting(?) special

well the first gold medal has gone to a chinese athlete in shooting. i know little about the above model however i do recall it being referred to as a shooting trainer. any insight from adi-hash heads is appreciated. looking something like a pro model on roids, it features some tech d-ring technology & a thick rigid sole. so rigid in fact they flex little & look almost like cross country skiing clip-ons. this gives them that correctional shoe type vibe which is so hot right now. special needs indeed.

as far as im concerned, which is pretty far, DO believe the hype. cazal make serious frames & all others pale in comparison. this mid 80s west german model with clear frames & adjustable white arms is 1 example. superior crafsmanship with unparralleled asymmetrics & graduated blue lenses.
