Adidas Superstar II Black Stone Khaki

Adidas Superstar II Black Stone Khaki — The Shell-Toe That Conquered the Streets

The definitive Superstar prototype was completed in 1969, and adidas still keeps the original in its archive. It reached the public in 1970 as a low-top basketball shoe, with an all-leather upper and the iconic shell-shaped rubber toe, a lightweight response to the wear suffered by elite players. Decades later, it leapt from the court into hip-hop culture and never looked back.

The Superstar II — the version with the thick tongue

The Superstar II appeared in the late 1990s and early 2000s with its defining feature: the Fat Tongue, a much thicker, padded tongue designed to provide comfort and presence when worn with loose laces, a characteristic gesture of the hip-hop and skate scenes of the era. This colorway dresses the body in black with the Three Stripes and details in Stone Khaki, a muted khaki that breaks up the dark block without shouting.
