London, Berlin, Dublin, Copenhagen, etc. . The adidas City Series, named after cities around the world and available in a wide variety of colors, has been a popular collection since the 1970s, but there are actually very few models featuring Japanese cities.
BILLY'S" has turned its attention to the City Series. On the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the company's founding, BILLY'S has completed a pair that is too special.
SHIBUYA ¥16,500 each
The name "SHIBUYA," where the head store of "Billy's" is located, was incorporated into this collaborative model. It is unusual to use the name of a ward in the City Series, which usually includes the name of a city.
Furthermore, in honor of the 10th anniversary, two of the three stripes on the inside of the left foot are the same color as the body, for a total of 10 stripes on each side, an irregular arrangement. The fact that the two companies could be so bold as to make such a change to an icon of "adidas" shows the relationship of trust between the two.
The address of the first "Billy's" store and the date of its opening 10 years ago are embossed in gold on the inside of the shoes, a finish befitting an anniversary model that has been meticulously crafted down to the invisible details.
This model, which will be sold exclusively at "Billy's" worldwide, will surely become a valuable archive 10 or 20 years from now. Sales will start on Friday, April 26.
