London – Core White/Deep Marine-Gum
This is what a sports sneaker looked like in the ’70s – how far we’ve come. The adidas Dublin is one of the shoes released under the famed City Series which – as the name suggests – saw a range of shoes named after certain cities.
As Australians, it’s hard to convey the impact that the City Series had on European kids in particular, but for many there’s a particular shoe from the range which they claim as ‘theirs’. The series itself is a bit of a mixed bag with some unique models and a lot of colourways on similar silhouettes with sometimes minuscule differences.
The London’s snub-nosed original was made in an iconic red with black accents but in 2024 it takes on many guises including the one you see before you now.
