To say that KoRn x adidas was a long time in the making would be an understatement. Last year marked the 27th birthday of one of the band’s more inescapable hits, A.D.I.D.A.S., and also brought us a capsule collection that finally brought the two together. Collaborating on the adidas Campus and adidas Supermodified models, the shoes were released to sky-high demand, the former now commanding resale prices over double its retail. Giving the people what they want, KoRn x adidas is back for round two, reuniting on the Campus 2.
True to the 2023 installment, the palette is here relatively staid, relying on a classic blend of white & beige in the periphery and navy on the upper. That section is where things get interesting, though, the KoRn Campus 2 here switching to a long-haired shaggy yarn. The shoe is still chock-full of KoRn-related imagery: the tongues alternate between the band’s logo and the Three Stripes and the Campus branding on the lateral side reflects the logo’s typeface, peeking out from the shag fabric in bold gold shades. KoRn’s music is anything but conservative, but their work with adidas continues to present easily worn kicks that’ll comfortably slide into any fan’s wardrobe.
The KoRn x adidas Campus 2 is set to drop exclusively via the CONFIRMED app on May 15th, carrying a $120 MSRP. Take a look at official photos included limited edition packaging just ahead.
