In an innovative collaboration, Marvel has joined forces with adidas and Size? to launch an exclusive sneaker collection inspired by the enthralling Doctor Strange film series. This meticulously designed assortment is a homage to the trilogy, encapsulating the enchantment and allure of the Doctor Strange universe through three of adidas’ most celebrated footwear models: the Handball Spezial, Gazelle Indoor, and New York.
Each model in this collection is artistically aligned with one of the films, featuring inspired aesthetics that reflect the magical and mystical elements of the narrative. The core inspiration for these designs is drawn from the Sanctum Sanctorum locations in New York, London, and Hong Kong. These iconic sites, pivotal in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, are the strongholds of the Masters of the Mystic Arts and play essential roles in safeguarding the realm from mystical threats.
Revealed during the bustling atmosphere of New York Comic Con, the collection embodies a sophisticated yet enigmatic charm. Noteworthy embellishments include the Seal of Vishanti, a protective emblem that is intricately embroidered on each sneaker’s heel. Additionally, the collaboration is distinctly marked with Marvel x adidas co-branding on the tongue of each shoe. The color schemes have been thoughtfully selected to represent each sanctum: verdant hues for the Gazelle Indoor, a blend of navy and pink for the Handball Spezial, and a striking mustard gold with spruce highlights for the New York model.
The collection is scheduled for release in October 2024 and will be available exclusively through Size?, both in physical stores and online. This unique fusion of Marvel’s cinematic storytelling and adidas’ iconic streetwear design offers fans and sneaker aficionados an exclusive opportunity to showcase their passion for the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Marvel x adidas Gazelle Indoor “Dr. Strange London Sanctum” is set for release in October 2024. The Marvel x adidas Handball Spezial “Dr. Strange Hong Kong Sanctum” and the Marvel x adidas New York “Dr. Strange New York Sanctum” are also scheduled to launch in the same month. Each piece in this collection promises to be a collector’s item, merging the thrill of cinema with the authenticity of high-street fashion.
