vintage ADIDAS leisure series KORSIKA leather tassled loafer MADE IN YUGOSLAVIA UK5











vintage adidas 
korsika
made in yugoslavia circa 1980's
new (without box)
UK5

somehow a re-stock of our fave piece of adidas footwear ever & a point of departure from which there is no way back to more athletic 'trainers'! from the under the RADar adi leisure series from the 80's we are not even sure korsika is the correct name of this particular island paradise. featuring heavy duty leather tassles, brass rivets & reach-around capacity it is the capital city of leisure & ultimately presented with our pleasure.

vintage kellog's 
dream team usa paper jacket
made in usa 1992
used
small (34-36)
20.5" pit to pit
24" collar to waist

imagine finding this in your bowl of kellogg's special k back in 92. the best team ever assembled on paper.... jacket! superb condition in adult small size which does fit short. it does not feature all members however if memory serves correct certain dreamers were late additions or did nike have something to do with jordan failing to appear on official merch? it does capture legends including bird & mullen however plus the utah connection & mr robinson. don't waste paper

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.

perhaps less a summer olympic frame than a winter frame, although i could see these on a time trial cyclist. more for collectors interest as these have sufferred at the hands of storage wear. consistent colour fading & lense flaws make this more fancy dress than fancy frames.
