The pack launches at midnight tonight (31st August)….

The ZX380 was first released in 1986, only a year before the EQT, yet the styling is far more retro, similar to the ZX300 and ZX500 in shape, with the iconic mesh and suede uppers that set the ZX series apart. The ZX380 OG is one of the most anticipated releases of the year so far, and for very good reason, not only does this remind us of our school days, but it’s also as good as we remembered, a great example of Adidas running shoe design at it’s finest.

The Equipment Support Running made a welcome re-appearance in it’s original colourway earlier this year, and this updated version perfectly showcases this late 80s favourite. The Torsion system still provides exceptional comfort and the angular modern lines look as fresh now as they did in the year ‘La Bamba’ topped the charts.

For this final collection Kazuki has truly pulled out all the stops, producing what we consider to be his finest collection yet. Kazuki once again draws inspiration from his native Tokyo, with obvious Japanese streetwear elements to the collection. He has also collaborated with friends Jam Home Made, Azuma, and of course Ian Brown.

Kazuki and Ian Brown have been friends for over 10 years, and ever since the conception of the Originals by Originals range, there has been speculation over whether Kazuki would produce a shoe with his good friend. Ian Brown has always championed Kazuki’s collection, appearing in the look books and promotional videos, and now the collaboration has finally happened.

The ZX Ian Brown is a classic premium ZXZ, produced in the finest leather, of course in Ian’s favourite colour, black. Japanese jewellery designers Jam Home Made have gone to work on the Stan Smith, updating the eyelets, uppers and back heel tab, to produce a shoe with a distinctly Japanese style. The KZK Plants is a slimline plimsole designed by floral artist Azuma, which brings a totally new dimension to the range. The Copepan seamlessly fuses the Campus and T-toe with stunning results. The Darwen is a mid-cut ZX-Boat style hybrid, roumered to be named after the town Darwen in Lancashire, home town of Kazuki’s friend Gary Aspen. The final footwear style is the ZX Mocc, which draws inspiration from the 1960′s creeper shoes, current en-vogue in Japan.

The apparel collection is classic Kazuki – A seamless mix of Japanese street wear and technical outdoor wear. There are obvious references to baseball throughout the collection, which is both Kazuki and Japan’s favourite sport.

The collection will launch at our exclusive launch event on Thursday 3rd March at End Hunting Co. in Newcastle upon Tyne, and online at 00:00 GMT on Friday 4th March. We have very limited numbers of each style, and demand is set to be huge for Kazuki’s final collection, so please  try and join us on the night, or keep an eye on the website to ensure you bag yourself a little bit of Adidas history.

It is not just the EQT set for a January release, long-time favourites such as the Rom, Beckenbauer and ZX700 are all set to make an appearance in a number of guises. As per usual, interest is bound to be very high, so we are allowing you the opportunity to pre-order your favourite Adidas shoes now, in advance of release, to avoid disappointment. Head over the the Adidas Section now to see what lies in store for 2011…

The innovative designs exceed anything else that has come in the range, the materials and finishes used are well thought out and executed brilliantly, so we’d imagine, with less than 100 pairs in stock these won’t be around for long….

This season Kazuki has also teamed up with Tokyo-based brands Neigborhood and WHIZ Ltd, along with Japanese DJ and artist Mintos, who have brought their own ideas to the collection. Seasonal highlights within apparel include Kazuki’s Light Jacket, a fully seam-taped 3-dimensional silhouette construction using a waterproof 2L Diaplex fabric as well as waterproof zippers. The collection also included fully Neighborhood branded premium hoodys, tees and tech chino pants, all set to become future collectors items.

The footwear range distinguishes itself with new models in Fall/Winter 2010 such as the ZX KZK, with a hybrid moccasin upper silhouette, and a special winterized version based on the Adidas Forum incorporating the graphic element from the shell jacket. The Campus 80s remains a favorite sneaker model, in a fresh design coming in two colourways this season, together with the Campus 80s featuring WHIZ Ltd. The LUKER by Neighborhood Superstar is however the star of the collection. Finished with either a black or white upper, and with full LUKER by Neighborhood and Adidas dual branding, this is a style set to sell out and fall into the realms of Adidas folk law.

This season Kazuki has also worked on a full Kids collection to sit alongside the menswear range, with matching tees and trainers.

The range is set to launch online on Friday 13th August at 00:00 BST. We have some key looks and preview images below, and will be releasing further product images and range information over the next week running up to the launch.

The two original colourways of White & Navy and Black will are available to pre-order online from 0:00 BST on Sunday 1st August, with the shoes shipping early September. This is a truly iconic release, and is not to be missed.
