The show took place at gallery Newcastle Contemporary Art from October 27 to November 5.
Rows of adidas trainers signed by the likes of Liam and Noel Gallagher, Run DMC, New Order, The Clash, Stone Roses, Jay-Z and more were all presented alongside apparel, photography and related memorabilia.
The latest adidas Spezial collection comprises seven “unique” silhouettes, including an update on last year’s Moscrop SPZL, the Moscrop 2 SPZL; an all-black Hiaven SPZL with adi-Tex membrane; the 1970s-inspired Samba Deco SPZL, which arrives in two new colourways; and new models the Inverness SPZL, the Englewood SPZL and the Lawkholme SPZL. Curated by Spezial founder and adidas archivist, Gary Aspden, a Haslingden jacket, Moorfield anorak and Sudell TT and TP tracksuit round out the collection.
The line-up will be available for purchase via the adidas Confirmed app and select retailers from November 16.
