adidas Originals is relaunching its "adidas Spezial" collection for the Fall/Winter 2018 season, inspired by modern sound system subculture and acid house music. It will be available from September 7th.
Celebrating 30 years of acid house music culture, the collection focuses on the warehouse party movement of the '80s and how its legacy is carried on by 21st-century sound systems. Inspired by the intersections between modern sound system subculture and early acid house, the collection showcases how fashion and music continue to influence the world and how adidas remains an important presence in it.

A total of eight apparel items will be released. The color palette used for graphic t-shirts and heritage-inspired footwear and accessories continues from last season's Spring/Summer 2018 season, creating a vibrant lineup perfect for the cold season.
The "MOD TREFOIL CREW" (15,000 yen) has been updated with autumn/winter colors, and the reversible "CARNFORTH PUFFA" (45,000 yen) adds a touch of color to the outerwear lineup. Inspired by Adidas' archives from the late '80s, the "LOTON JACKET" (35,000 yen) features modern functionality thanks to its Climastorm material, while the "AIGBURTH ANORAK" (24,000 yen) is lightweight and packable.
