This sneaker from Sam Flores Adidas Originals and Upper Playground will be released on Thursday, August 7. This is the first hi-top shoe in the collection of their series. The artists who contributed efforts in this project are Aesop Rock, David Choe and Herbert Baglione.

The stocks for this sneaker number to only 500 pairs for the entire world. They are sold at Upper Playground and some UP retail stores.

Sam Flores originated from Mexico. He migrated to the West Coast of US 15 years ago. He became a good artist in fine art and product design. He applied his skills to shoe designing. Flores’ art has a futuristic perspective that is identified and shared by many people. Fans like his art because it appeals to them.

Sam Flores talked about his design for this sneaker. He said that his objective was to make a colorful sneaker for warm weather. He chose neutral colors to win the approval of male and female customers. He said that those colors could take in some dust and still look good. In short, the maintenance was low.

Sam has worked with Upper Playground in other projects too. He will be working on vinyl figures for Upper Playground’s tenth anniversary celebrations.

This is a good looking shoe and I definitely would like to own a pair.
