Brand new, Deadstock, Unworn adidas adizero F50 TRX FG Yamamoto - Orange/Grey/Driftwood Limited Edition Sz 10.5
$500 OBO
Limited Edition - Only 2000 pairs available worldwide
Destined to be a collectors' item, the legendary Yohji Yamamoto puts his own stamp on these adizero f50 football boots with a stunning graphic on the upper featuring the artwork of Taishi Hayashi.
Yamamoto employs the traditional Japanese motif of an open mouth lion as a guardian deity for victory, a sovereign creature to protect those playing on the pitch.
According to adidas, the front of the boots display a pair of imperial lion-dogs who, in ancient times, guarded the emperors of Japan. The traditional design has been placed in the context of Japan's modern sci-fi culture, creating a spiritual connection between the past and the future.
"My inspiration is a mixture of ancient traditions and modern sci-fi from Japanese culture," Yamamoto explains. "I hope the inspiration of the boot harmonizes the players and gives them extra confidence to express themselves without any fear. People should feel free to express themselves. Just follow your own instinct."
