The brainchild of Gucci’s creative director Alessandro Michele, the highly anticipated collection is a funky amalgamation of the luxury Maison’s fashion codes with those of acclaimed sportswear brand adidas, a global designer and developer of athletic footwear and apparel.

A fashionable fusion

You don’t have to be an Olympic athlete to look fit and sporty. With the casual-chic pieces in this cross-category adidas x Gucci collection, you can put a spring in your step as you show off your youthfulness in contemporary streetwear that beckons for attention.

Creative director and designer Michele cleverly wove together a hybrid collection of past and present to create a fusion of retro silhouettes crafted with future-conscious material fabrications, including polyester, cotton and viscose.

Expanding on adidas’s creative concept founded on an affinity for three stripes, Michele took iconic elements from both adidas and the house of Gucci to unleash this groovy collection of women’s and men’s ready-to-wear pieces, including shoes and accessories.

Set your own trend

Channel your inner fashion goddess while being on fleek— be it in a tennis-inspired polo, a sweater vest, a knit dress or a graphic tee.

Designed to let you mix and match according to your mood, the tracksuit, for instance, is reimagined in multiple ways with shorts and jogger pants for women, or flared pants and a bowling shirt for men.

Across the board, the pieces feature the famous GG monogram and Interlocking G intertwined with the adidas Trefoil in colourful prints as well as on jacquard fabrics, while the red and green Web of Gucci complements the three stripes of adidas.

The collection also includes an array of lifestyle items, including a golf bag in two variations, as well as bags, leather heels, suede loafers, silk scarves, hats and headbands.

Add flair on your feet

It’s not just your outfit and accessories; your footwear says a lot about your style too. The right choice of shoes can add so much to your look and elevate your street cred by notches.
