Adidas Campus 80s Towelie
In collaboration with the South Park series, Adidas created a limited edition inspired by the character Towelie. This model features unique design elements that celebrate this iconic character. Towelie, known for his love of all things "smoky," brings a humorous and distinct character to this unique collaboration.
Design
The Adidas Campus 80s Towelie is made from purple terry cloth, reflecting the towel texture that Towelie is known for. The tongues of the shoes feature eyes that change expression based on light conditions – in sunlight, the eyes turn red, which is a playful reference to Towelie’s habits. Inside the tongues is Towelie’s famous quote "Don't forget to bring a towel!" along with other phrases. This detail adds a humorous and collectible character to the shoes.
Materials and Comfort
The use of terry cloth not only provides an authentic look but also gives the shoes a pleasant texture. The Campus 80s are known for their comfortable construction, and this model is no exception. With the classic rubber sole and well-padded insole, the shoes ensure comfort that is perfect for everyday wear.
Packaging
The shoes come in special packaging featuring a Towelie theme, which also includes collectible cards of characters from South Park. The package further contains 2 keychains. This packaging adds to the exclusivity of the shoes, making them a perfect gift for fans.
Additional Information on the Towelie Release
The Towelie model was part of the celebrations of 4/20 on April 20, 2021, which is regarded as an unofficial holiday associated with cannabis culture. The limited release sold out quickly due to high demand from both sneaker fans and South Park enthusiasts. Thanks to its unique design elements and limited quantity, this model has become highly valued among collectors.
Overall, this collaboration combines humor and nostalgia with high-quality craftsmanship, making the Campus 80s Towelie one of the most standout sneaker releases in recent times.
