adidas x Song For The Mute

Song for the Mute and adidas are launching their second collaborative collection, the “earth pack”, featuring a unique take on adidas’ Campus silhouette in their SFTM-002 footwear. This collection, distinct from the futuristic first release, embraces a dystopian ‘back-to-earth’ theme. The SFTM-002 showcases frayed, raw-edged canvas uppers, thick rubber soles, and steam-punk inspired metallic eyelets, blending utopian and dystopian elements.

The shoes feature an earthbound khaki upper with a gum sole, contrasted by adidas’ iconic three-stripes in a textured tape and vibrant lime, hinting at the first release’s futuristic theme. Additionally, the SFTM-001 Shadowturf model is updated, maintaining its original features with a nuanced brown colorway, reflecting terrestrial inspiration.

The new earth pack will be available to purchase online from both songforthemute.com and adidas.com.au from December 7.
