Not only are Deadpool and Wolverine finally teaming up on the big screen next week for the release of Marvel's much-anticipated Deadpool & Wolverine film, but the comic book characters are also joining forces on an upcoming Adidas collection.
For this upcoming Marvel x Adidas collab, the duo is releasing Deadpool and Wolverine-inspired Rivalry Lows, an Adizero Electric cleat, and matching apparel. The brand is also teasing a third sneaker in the group, but that pair won't be unveiled until the film hits theaters next week.
Each of the Rivalry Low styles is inspired by the ensembles of Deadpool or Wolverine, while a graphic of the respective character is stamped on the heel. The cleat wears a black and red colorway inspired by Deadpool's outfit.
"Bringing together these iconic franchises with Marvel Studios’ Deadpool & Wolverine has been an exciting collaborative journey," Shane Jochum, the senior director of NAM strategic partnerships at Adidas, said. "Our relationship with Marvel and its fans continues to unlock opportunities for us as a brand to develop products to be used in films and worn by fans as they celebrate the launches of highly anticipated films. We’re excited for fans to get their hands on this collection and see it come to life in the film this summer."
Readers will be able to cop the footwear and apparel from this Marvel x Adidas Deadpool & Wolverine collection starting on Aug. 1 at Adidas.com and at select Adidas retailers.
UPDATE (07/25): As mentioned in the unveiling last week, there's a third shoe included in the new "Deadpool and Wolverine" Adidas collab. We can now confirm that the sneaker is the "Kidpool" Forum Low, as seen in the official product imagery here. It appears that the style references a plot point in the upcoming film, which makes sense as to why this pair has yet to be revealed by the brand. The full collection is dropping on Aug. 1 at Adidas.com and at select retailers.
