adidas x SNS GT II: retro done GORE-TEX style
Autumn can be full of surprises. One minute the sun’s out, the next it’s pouring rain. That’s when regular sneakers often don’t make the cut, and you need something better suited for the weather. That’s why Sneakersnstuff and adidas Originals are back with another edition of the legendary SNS GT II - this time in a GTX version, fully finished with GORE-TEX® to take on any conditions.
This is already the seventh edition of the model that’s been blending adidas’ sports heritage with the terrace spirit of Northern European streets for years. The original design was based on the adidas Malmö Net, later upgraded with the tried-and-true Handball Spezial sole. The result? A classic silhouette rooted in casual culture - now upgraded with a touch of modern tech.
Rave, concrete and GORE-TEX
The inspiration? Stockholm’s 90s rave scene - where underground tunnels pulsed with strobe lights, and posters on concrete walls reminded everyone that a good party didn’t need fancy clubs. The new GT II pays tribute to that raw, wild, and unapologetically real energy.
The colorway doesn’t play it safe. The black “Core Black” upper sets a solid base, while the contrasting purple Three Stripes and pink tongue patch bring the energy. Subtle “Carbon Grey” tones and the classic gum sole complete the old-school vibe. Every detail is spot on - from the retro shape to the materials that not only look good but also keep you dry.
Because here, form really meets function. Thanks to GORE-TEX®, the shoe is waterproof and breathable, so you don’t have to check the forecast before heading out. Whether it’s a walk in the park, a rainy match at the stadium, or a late-night city wander - the GT II 7th Edition has you covered.
A style that never fades
The SNS GT series has long gone beyond a simple collab. It’s a story of culture - how sport, music, and the streets have been intertwined for decades. Every new drop isn’t just a new colorway; it’s another chapter in the history of a style born from rave rhythms that now moves to its own beat.
This edition is more than just a refreshed model - it’s a statement of authenticity, mixed with modern tech and a solid dose of Swedish design sense. A shoe made for those who value comfort but never compromise on character.
