Adidas’ April sneaker slate is set to continue the reemergence of its Basketball division led by signature models from Anthony Edwards and James Harden. Both the AE 1 and Harden Vol. 8 will get brand-new colorways this month, but that’s not all there is in store from the Brand With Three Stripes.
A large new capsule from the Fear of God Athletics line will include two new sneaker drops, while Adidas’ recently launched partnership with Clot will also bear a second colorway for their remixed Superstar brogue. The retro inspired Crazy IIInfinity will also get a new scheme clearly intended to tempt Los Angeles Lakers fans, and plenty of surprises should also be in store as the month progresses.
Below, Footwear News takes you through the best Adidas sneakers releasing in April. The list will be updated as more information becomes available.
