    Adidas Samoa Makes a Visible Comeback

    Saturday April 28, 2012

    Extremely popular in the 80s, the Adidas Samoa is now becoming a sneaker of choice for many. Its steady rise in the background over the last few years is now visible on the streets. Someone who wore Asics last year is most likely wearing a pair of Adidas Samoas this year. However, someone who always wore Adidas is not affected by the growing resurgence of the slim Samoa. Sometimes you can't explain consumer behavior, and this is one of those strange times.

    First introduced in 1977 as a training shoe, the Adidas Samoa took game day to the streets and has become a decades-long fan favorite. The Samoa's durability and lasting style meant it wasn't going anywhere as its popularity grew. Known for its signature suede toebox and distinctive Trefoil tread, the Samoa is available in a wide range of colors and has the versatility to dominate any scene. If you dig them, you can browse through a selection here.
