Amsterdam-based skate collective\u00a0Pop Trading Company<\/a> <\/strong>partners with adidas Skateboarding<\/a> <\/strong>to create an outdoor-inspired footwear and apparel line. Using the flat lowlands of the Netherlands as the collection’s foundation, the limited edition capsule incorporates design cues from skateboarding and premium menswear to create\u00a0timeless pieces that satisfies skateboarders, fashion aficionados, and outdoor enthusiasts alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For the first time ever, adidas Skateboarding takes over the\u00a0TERREX Swift R2 GTX<\/a><\/strong>. This hiking silhouette is equipped with waterproof Gore-Tex technology on the membrane liner that blocks wind and rain across changing terrain. The skater-approved sneaker is covered in all-over Pop branding with a bungee speed lacing system and a classic Continental rubber outsole for extra grip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Using a more traditional skate model, Pop takes the iconic\u00a0adidas Campus ADV<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and adorns the sneaker in a ripstop, paired with a toe cap and a hot melt rubber toe bumper that stretches to the heel for extended durability. The sneaker is complete with suede eye stays and a recycled Ortholite sock liner for added comfort during longer sessions.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n We were stoked when adidas Skateboarding gave us creative reign to design this range. They trusted our vision and provided us access to adidas\u2019 vault for all categories. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019re huge fans of the brand\u2019s TERREX products so it was an honor to put our spin on the\u00a0Swift R2 GTX\u00a0with Scott Johnston, the brand\u2019s footwear designer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Our goal was to create a line that fuses skateboarding with menswear, to find elements that complement those two worlds, and deliver something truly unique and unexpected.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n We think this collection exceeded our expectations and we\u2019re excited to share it with the world.<\/p>\nPeter Kolks, Pop\u2019s co-founder<\/strong><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Offered in universal sizing for inclusivity, the apparel selection includes a\u00a0Pop Thermal Long Sleeve,\u00a0a Pop Tech Tee, Pop Tech Socks, and a\u00a0Pop Superlite Cap. Standouts from the apparel collection include a durable water-repellent Pop Tech Jacket\u00a0and matching\u00a0pant\u00a0set, which also sports sweat-wicking AEROREADY features to help regulate heat management. The entire apparel collection utilizse adidas\u2019 recycled lightweight Primegreen technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In celebration\u00a0of the collection, adidas Skateboarding dropped the\u00a0\u201cPop Trading Company\u201d<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0skate video that showcases a playful balance of Pop\u2019s tongue-in-cheek humor and skateboarding in the wilderness. The clip gives a glimpse into the dedication and resourcefulness that skaters embody just to get a session in among the iconic flat landscape of the Netherlands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The\u00a0adidas Skateboarding by Pop Trading Company Collection<\/strong> drops on February 18, 2023.
