Hot off the Adidas Shop, The Superstar II TL mahogani/mekhak/sesami colors really kicks ass. I bought a pair of blackies with transparent stripes on it 6 months ago, the durability is amazing, Trust me, it's worth your money. Where you can find it? Adidas Shop, Dubai Festival City Waterfront. 

Here's a bit of history about it.

Superstar is a basketball shoe manufactured by athletic goods company Adidas since 1969.When the shoe was introduced, it was the first low-top basketball shoe to feature an all-leather upper and the now famous rubber shell toe. Three quarters of all NBA players were wearing the shell toe shoes by the mid 70's and the Adidas Superstar hasn't lost its popularity since then.

No longer a performance basketball shoe, the Superstar has become part of popular fashion culture and have become popular as casual footwear due to its all leather upper and wide variety of styles and colors.

Rap group RUN-DMC were the most famous advocates of the Superstars, wearing them in their trademark style of removing the laces and pushing the shoe tongue out. They even wrote a song called "My Adidas" which further popularized the brand. The Superstars, like the Converse Chuck Taylor All-Stars, easily made the transition from the basketball court to street as it was sported by both hip-hop aficionados and rockers.

The Superstars are now being sold in Adidas stores, with brand new colorways.

Love it. Still got the rough leather type back in ph. took it with me to maintain trips, mud dirt, camping, party, school, running, river swimming, jumpin and headbangin to punkrock tunes with a guitar ... wherever ... the shoe is amazingly durable. But my foot got bigger in time and wudnt fit me anymore. tried to find stores that sell it back at my place but it was simply hard to find.
