( 中文部分才是店長小草打的唷~~)

adidas Originals’ massive aZX project looks to release its third pack of products later this month. For those unfamiliar with the project, adidas Originals hit up 22 different entities from around the world such as brands and popular institutions in the sneaker world. Each was given the opportunity to create their own colorway from the ZX series. The latest Group Q - W includes Dave’s Quality Meats (Q - ZX 90), Alife Rivington Club (R - ZX 7000), SNS (S - ZX 450), Crooked Tongues (T - ZX 9000), Undefeated (U - ZX 8000), VA (V - ZX 9000) and Wood Wood (W - ZX 9000). View the entire collection and the inspirations behind each shoe after the jump.

來自全球不同國家的頂級潮鞋舖與愛迪達拼湊出最精采的火花
2008年愛迪達最重要的潮流盛事除了我們現在店內正在販售的"CONSORTIUM"系列之外
"AZX"應該就是波鞋界下半年最熱鬧最夯的活動啦~~~
先前店長小草的部落格為大家介紹過的A~H , I~O 分別在8/8 , 9/20 已經完成發售
今天為大大們介紹的是即將於10/18發售的市售版最後一波攻勢~~~

GROUP Q~W



DQM ZX 90

Dave’s Quality Meats’ ‘Q’ choice to pick the slimline ZX 90 design means a shoe that’s perfect for everyday wear, and well suited to cycling via some stylish applications and utilitarian additions to this contemporary Torsion runner. Reflective mesh and paneling means extra visibility, while the mix of sky blue, bright red, light green and black is a unique but aesthetically pleasing one, with a matching lace for each color. These New Yorkers are professionals when it comes to collaborative footwear, and from the choice-of-model to the minimal branding, thinking differently again for this opportunity has made for another classic.
來自紐約的DQM已經不是跟愛迪達第一次合作了~~~
選擇了超冷門的 ZX90 為設計便可以看出 DQM 的特立獨行,
這群紐約克硬是要來點跟別人不一樣的感覺~~
選擇ZX90鞋型的最大原因在於他們喜歡這雙鞋對於街頭運動的著用感非常舒適與好穿~
甚至用來騎乘FIXEDGEAR也無往不利~~
加上由他們主導的神奇配色~~
在在都顯出營造經典鞋的意圖唷~~~~

A.R.C. ZX 7000

Alife Rivington Club’s premium approach to footwear, branding and retail extends to their ‘R’ addition to aZX. On a quest to offer an antidote to the obnoxious footwear on offer elsewhere, their ZX 7000 stays tasteful, with deep reds throughout on an upper constructed from nylon mesh, leather and suede. A simple concept expertly executed, it gives this key moment in adidas running innovation a rugged, eye-catching look that blends two key shades, with undeniably classy results and the laces to match. Bringing the best out this silhouette, the Alife crew have delivered another makeup with panache.
同樣來自紐約的A.R.C (ALIFE RIVINGTON CLUB)是當今稱霸美國潮流界的霸主~
有多屌? 不是他們家的會員還不得其門而入~~
一定要是會員才能入內購物唷~~
更屌的是~~入門處一座長達12公尺的超大水族缸養的是亞馬遜河的食人魚~~
真是不了解真正的潮流人士在想什麼~~超屌~~~
這次ARC獲選AZX並不讓人意外~~一直以來以遴選最頂級街頭服飾及波鞋為己任~
不貴不屌不賣~~
令人意外的是ARC這回的設計實在令人拍案叫絕~~~
整雙用上紅,加紅,再加紅,還是紅~~
誰會想到這樣的配色出現在ZX7000上會如此好看呢???
 店長小草第一個舉手發言: 請給我一雙!!!!!        
要不要這麼好看啊~~~~~~~~

SNS ZX 450

Sweden’s SneakersNStuff team’s respect for the ZX 450 shines through in their take on this classic runner, transforming it into an autumnal hometown salute as the ‘S’ in the aZX alphabet. Shades of green, including the classic adidas fairway on the stripes, ghilly lace and heel tab, constructed from nothing but waterproof materials, with an unexpected but particularly complimentary orange appearance on the outsole that stays in line with the shoe’s legacy but carries an intensely personal vision. Fallen leaves decorate the footbed, while branded lace tips and reflective forefoot panels complete a premium makeover.
來自瑞典的 SNS ( SNEAKERSNSTUFF ) 一直是小草每天的必逛網站~~
堪稱歐洲球鞋界網站三大霸主ㄓㄧ~~~
雖然網站定價及運費都偏貴(誰叫新台幣如此不爭氣這麼渺小)
 但是由於新鞋更新率十分的快~~因此,
多年來~店長小草也在上面敗了不少愛迪達的波鞋~~
這回SNS選了十分具有老鞋味的ZX450~用上防水材質~搭配上小草綠~~~
很清新的感覺~~~
正當覺得還不夠囂張不夠刺激的時候~
發現她還附有一組跳色用的橘色鞋帶~~馬上再加100分~~~
棒棒棒!!!!

Crooked Tongues ZX 9000

Representing for the ‘T’ in aZX, Londons’ Crooked Tongues crew opted for the top-of-the-line ZX 9000 model for its Soft Cell, sci-fi styling and Torsion technology, with a makeup that lets the yellow of the outsole bar application spill into the midsole and side panels. With cues from legendary running makeups, the black reflective stripes and paneling don’t lose sight of the unbeatable performance heritage, while gray suede, carbon effect and differing mesh textures are complimented by a plethora of custom tipped lace options, a reverential homage in the lace jewel and custom designed Torsion psychedelia on the footbeds. A perfectly balanced, menacing love letter to the ZX series.

不必多說~~只要真的懂鞋的鞋迷,
我想都有一個用了很久的 CROOKED TONGUES 的ID吧~~
沒上過來自英國的CT?  
別跟我說你懂鞋了~~         你懂個屁~~~
哈哈~
或許各位大大會覺得店長小草在開玩笑~~
但~~這是個全球不爭的事實~~
真正的高人全部都隱身在CT版中~~
會員當中高手如雲~~~~
其中不乏許多知名球鞋店的老闆~~~
每天都會上來互相討教~~
有時會藉由他們見識到很多很厲害的怪咖 唷~~~~

別跟小草說你英文不好看不懂~
有一種東西叫翻譯軟體,
還有一種東西叫苦讀~~~
對球鞋有興趣? 認真點吧~~~~~

最近的CROOKED TONGUES動作頻頻~~
跟許多BRAND PROJECT做聯名~~
著實讓他們在波鞋網站界的大老地位屹立不搖~
穩坐第一名的寶座
這回用上飽和黃搭配灰色的絕佳平衡感~~
選用大家最喜愛的ZX9000突顯不對稱的美感~~
加上CARBON的超級無敵男人質感~~

誰敢不說
這是一雙耐看十年以上的屌鞋ㄚ~~~~

Undefeated ZX 8000

Undefeated’s trademark mix of performance and cutting edge design is at work on their ‘U’ interpretation of the ZX 8000. Taking the Torsion runner and giving it a clean, contemporary look, by starkly contrasting two key shades – bright orange and dazzling rave green on the footbed and Torsion bar itself, the mix of materials, - meshes and suede, completed with nylon stripes makes winning strides towards authenticity and innovation. Minimal branding, beyond the distinctive bars on the tongue indicates a retailer quietly confident of their winning form, and finished with a collection of laces for three very different looks, they remain unbeaten.

"UNDEFEATED"活躍在當今潮流舞台是不爭的事實,
店長小草並沒有特別的喜歡它,
而是非常的佩服它~能在短短的4年光陰將一個品牌經營的如此出色
是一件很不容易的事,
有勞於老闆是潮流界紅人~同時也是stussy LA的老闆~~
穿梭在大小潮牌中建立良好的互動關係~~不斷的用聯名的方式達到無限大的加持~~~

現在~你說~~
哪個亞洲的小朋友不知道這個牌子的? 
不會唸也看過這個柵欄標吧~~~哈~~~

這回引領潮流趨勢的undefeated用上的是歐洲人最愛的EQT全橘色跑鞋式樣~~~

不愧是波鞋帝王~~都知道現在什麼會賣~就做什麼~~~哈~~
跳色的starks 鞋帶~到時會附送三對唷~~~可謂超值ㄚ~~~

VA ZX 9000

Tokyo’s Styles and their VA store concept takes the ‘V’ space here, with an athletic version of the ZX 9000, that takes simple concept, and pulls it off in…style. With a name like that it was inevitable. Marl and dark grey sweatshirt materials and colors adorn the upper, while the white on the midsole sets things off strikingly. Velour stripes and a spot of bright, reflective yellow is a perfect finish, while the decision to make the Torsion bar fluorescent is a brave and effective move that makes them stand out as much as they did in their late 80’s heyday. Unorthodox materials, plus branding on the heel, tongue and a lace jewel makes for a well-executed variation on a favourite. 

由我們的友好店家~
日本styles 公司最新於原宿開的潮流鞋舖--VA ( VARIOUS ARTIST ) STORE 
跟愛迪達聯名的ZX9000
十分的讓人喜歡~~~
很舒服的配色~~很日本的潮流色~~~
在這期的日本版SHOES MASTER上大幅度報導先行曝光~~
超帥的啦~~~
大家有空可以上他們的網站看看唷~~~

Wood Wood ZX 9000

With a famed sense of style and the avant garde when it comes to sportswear, Wood Wood keep the surprises coming with their ‘W’ ZX 9000 – it’s a clean design that’s wearable with just about anything. Light grey toward the forefoot and lacestays, and an iron grey white and red toward the rear, there’s a playfulness at work with the finger signs and tongue detailing that differs between the right and left foot, and a choice of lace jewels that can be switched from the traditional to something a little more art-driven. Opting to add a WW to the stitched model name on the side maintains the elegance of both partner and product, completing a clever, flattering makeup with across-the-board appeal.

來自丹麥的 WOOD WOOD 再次榮選AZX合作對象之ㄧ~~
繼上次06年的ADICOLOR 聯名活動之後~
愛迪達再次找上這個漸漸在國際潮流舞臺上綻放光芒的名店 WOOD WOOD , 
有別於上回的粉紅搞怪~~這回的WOOD WOOD顯得低調成熟多了~~
有了更進一步的設計思維~~加倍參考了老鞋達迷的口味~~
以歐洲人喜愛清淡口味~買鞋以耐看為首要的設計為表達

店長小草心想~
這雙在亞洲一定又賣不好了~~
但是~~
預估~~
在遙遠的歐美市場~~
這一定又是一雙超搶手的好鞋唷~~~

( 唉~沒辦法~~台灣市場太小了~~ 真的懂WOOD WOOD的有幾個呢? )

說到這~~
應該就會有人問~~
奇怪~~~字母英文有26個~~別騙我書唸不好~~

我記得"W"後面還有 X,Y,Z 啊~~

ㄚ怎麼不見了?  沒消沒息?

哈~~~
據店長小草的推測加上內部小道消息~~
最難買的就是以下這幾雙啦~~~~~~~~~~~

想搜齊? 愛迪達又想讓你圓不了夢啦!!!!!!!!!!!!!


i= ICON STORE  

真正的達迷應該都知道, 愛迪達在這個世界上只有2間最頂級最旗艦的三葉草形象店就叫 ICON STORE
分別開在德國柏林及英國的倫敦各一家 
 英國那家叫 NO6 ( 6 號店) , 柏林那家叫做 NO.74 ( 74 號店 )
而這次的AZX " i " 便是為了向這兩間三葉草最具代表性的店致敬
因此, 愛迪達決定只在這兩家店舖販售 "i "

天ㄚ~~~晴天霹靂~~~~~

店長臨時去哪裡找人在9/20那天幫我排隊哪~~~超煩的啦~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(  失望放棄中.......  )


接著就更糟了......



Y= YOU

什麼叫Y=FOR YOU~~~
各位有空上這裡看看吧!!!!   AZX 
原來 Y 是場競賽~~~上這個網站DOWNLOAD ZX的鞋子樣板~~
在美工軟體上著色再上傳回去參加比賽~~~
你的作品就有機會成為傳說中的 " Y " 上市販售囉~~
還可以很屌的告訴世人~~這雙鞋是你設計的唷~~~~
屌B!!!!!!!!


所以,

這也是雙拿不到的鞋.......



接著是最糟最糟的........................



據店長小草聽到的小小道消息~~"Z" 跟 "X" 其實是同一雙鞋......
也就是"ZX"將會是最終一雙隱藏款的意思......
天ㄚ~~~~~難不成愛迪達又要像當年35周年一樣來個賤招~~~~~
又要來一個讓人家蒐不到~入手度不可能的賤招嗎?????????    

超擔心的啦~~~~

店長小草夜夜難眠中..........
