adidas Samba ADV Kader Sylla Brown Gum: A Cultural Tribute

The adidas Samba ADV Kader Sylla Brown Gum is a unique sneaker collaboration with American skateboarder Kader Sylla, celebrating his family's heritage from the Ivory Coast.

Distinctive Design and Craftsmanship

This iteration of the Adidas Samba ADV features an upper crafted from black brushed leather, forming both the toe box and sides. Dark brown suede overlays shape the T-style toe cap and extend from the top of the laces to create the heel section. The iconic Adidas 3-Stripes are displayed in brown suede on each side, while Kader’s name is elegantly embossed in gold on the lateral side. A gold adidas patch adorns the black tongue, and the heel collar is fashioned from smooth black leather. The heel showcases a single seam adorned with stitching in the vibrant orange, white, and green of the Ivory Coast flag. The shoe is completed with a brown gum rubber outsole.

A notable feature of this shoe is the understated detailing on the heel, a tribute to the Ivory Coast flag, adding significant cultural depth to the design. Released on February 10, 2024, the adidas Samba ADV Kader Sylla Brown Gum retailed at $120, and is available for purchase on Boxstock.
