The Olympic games are undoubtedly the event of the year. Awaited by all sports fans and not, the Olympic Games since 26 July have put the spotlight on the city of Paris which is hosting the event exactly 100 years after the last time.
This global event could not go unnoticed by the major sports brands who created sneakers both to support athletes in their activities and to celebrate the occasion.
Let's start with the Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro SE Paris Olympics
designed specifically for the Olympic games, in order to celebrate the host city of Paris and drawing inspiration from the cobblestones that we find in the streets of the French capital. The design of the sneaker is characterized by a nubuck upper that comes in various shades of grey. Spotted details adorn the TPU support wings as well as the rear tongue on which we find the classic Jumpman. The design is completed by a midsole in the "Wet Cement" color with air-sole on the heel.
Among the protagonists of these Olympic releases the Adidas Gazelle certainly could not be missing, which is certainly one of the most requested sneakers of the moment. For the occasion, the upper of this Adidas Gazelle Indoor features an "Olympic blue" satin base and leather and suede details, while the "Gazelle" writing in gold foil gives it an ornamental touch. Completing the design of this sneaker is the Olympic torch on the tongue, which for these Olympic games 2024 was designed by the Frenchman Mathieu Lehanneur, with the aim of representing the values of equality, peace and inclusion which are fundamental to the Olympic movement.
Nike also decides to celebrate this sporting competition with a SB Dunk Low Olympics Safari which comes with a leather structure in a mix of Phantom, Black, Monarch, Summit White and Chlorine Blue colours, with mesh tongues and lining. Other noteworthy details of the sneaker are the chlorine blue safari lace overlays and Monarch branding. Completing the design are a White midsole and Black rubber outsole.
To support their nation, the American brand Sporty & Rich in collaboration with Adidas has created a Samba inspired by the colors of the American flag. The upper is in fact in white leather, while the suede three stripes come in a combination of navy blue and red. The gum sole and a small gold medal with the Adidas brand complete the design of this Samba dedicated to the USA.
