CLOT and adidas Rework Superstar as a Mule
Edison Chen's CLOT has collaborated with adidas Originals, transforming the classic Superstar sneaker into a slip-on mule and a new suede version.
CLOT has reimagined the adidas Superstar sneaker as an elevated slip-on mule, according to Highsnobiety. This collaboration is part of Edison Chen's Fall/Winter 2026 collection with adidas Originals, marking a continuation of his nearly two decades of work with the brand. The collection also includes apparel.
What is it? CLOT has taken the adidas Superstar and, in one version, removed the heel to create a slip-on mule. The collection also features a dark royal blue suede Superstar that retains its back. Both designs incorporate CLOT's signature elements like a serrated outsole, a wedged midsole, and suede uppers, as reported by Highsnobiety.
What does the collection include? Beyond the footwear, the collection offers an apparel assortment. This includes a cargo jacket and shorts set, a vintage-style hockey jersey, track pants with braided rope details, and a reversible padded utility tote. The overall design draws influence from Edison Chen's connections to Hong Kong and Vancouver.
When and where can you get it? The CLOT x adidas Superstar Collection Fall 2026 was released on October 16, 2026. It is available through the adidas app, on adidas.com, and at select retailers. The blue Superstar is priced at $200, while the Superstar Mule retails for $180. Both footwear styles are offered in men's sizing.
Who is featured in the campaign? The collaboration continues an anime-inspired campaign from adidas Originals and CLOT. It features the South Korean musical group LNGSHOT, with members Ohyul, Ryul, Woojin, and Louis illustrated by artist Annie Choi.
The AKUSO take: This collaboration offers a fresh take on a classic, perfect for those who appreciate both sneaker history and modern design. The mule version in particular feels very LA for its casual ease.
