Adidas Forest Hills Brain Dead Black — the lightweight 1976 sneaker reimagined
The adidas Forest Hills was launched in 1976 as the brand’s lightest sneaker to date, featuring a ventilation system in the sole inspired by NASA technology and named after the New York neighborhood that hosted the US Open. In the ’80s, it became an icon of British casual culture thanks to stores such as Robert Wade Smith’s. Now, California-based Brain Dead brings the model back in this capsule, with the Core Black version as one of its main colorways.
Forest Hills — 1976, USA, lightweight performance on the court
It retains the low-profile, minimalist design, the three side stripes, and the perforated rubber sole characteristic of the original tennis shoe. In this Brain Dead Black version, black covers most of the leather and suede upper, with details on the stripes and heel adding the collaboration’s distinctive signature.
Materials and technology
- Upper: combination of black leather and suede with three side stripes
- Interior: soft textile lining with a padded insole
- Sole: light-colored perforated rubber sole, true to the original tennis shoe design
