First Look: The Adidas Centennial 85 Low ADV x Lil Dre Skate Shoes

Fresh from the adidas Skateboarding stables, the Centennial 85 Low ADV x Lil Dre shoes are here to cause a ruckus. Born from the courts of '85, the original Centennial's boundary-pushing style turned heads with its innovation. Adidas revisit that ethos, meshing classic b-ball steez with the distinctive flair of team rider DeAndre Thebpanya.

DeAndre, better known as Lil Dre, injects his unique blend of high fashion and vibrant personality into this iconic silhouette. The shoes boast a luxe split suede and nubuck upper, coloured in a sleek classic black. This understated canvas sets the stage for some pretty striking pops of metallic silver and bold pink details—a signature nod to Lil Dre’s mind-bending style.

But these aren't just a treat for the eyes. Engineered for skating, the Centennial 85 Low ADV promises the exceptional performance we've come to expect from adidazzlers with the ADV treatment. The cupsole packs adidas's latest impact cushioning technology, ensuring every landing is smoother than the last. 

These bad boys launch this Friday,19 April, at 00:00am (BST). In the meantime have a gander at the shoes.
