A second original colorway of the iconic adidas Mutombo is on its way. Honoring the 20th anniversary of the silhouette, which was first released during the 1992-93 NBA season, this third overall re-launch revisits the classic style code. Not as flashy as Mt. Mutombo's finger waving shot blocking, this SKU is set in plain black and white. A nubuck black base houses leather and canvas overlaying materials, which include an African-inspired weave pattern. The traditional African patterns that represent Dikembe's roots are used throughout the model, most notably on the iconic shield logo that incorporates his jersey number. Check out all of the detailed images of the next adidas Mutombo colorway in the gallery above, and brace yourself for the December 14th release at select adidas Originals retailers.
