Following their sold-out Korea-exclusive collection earlier this year, adidas Originals and Thug Club return with their first global collaboration for Fall/Winter 2025 — bringing the label’s distinctive aesthetic vision to a worldwide audience.

Founded in 2018, Thug Club draws inspiration from the contrasts of everyday life — blending the raw energy of hip-hop with the spirit of chopper bike culture to define its rebellious identity.

With an attitude that challenges conventional fashion codes, the label has built a community rooted in authentic expression and creative freedom. Known for its avant-garde design language, Thug Club has become a leading voice for a generation that refuses to be defined.

The adidas Originals x Thug Club Fall/Winter 2025 collection reinterprets the Three Stripes DNA — infused with the distinctive attitude of Korean streetwear.

Medieval codes merge with the energy of modern duelists — fearless, precise, and full of attitude. One of adidas’ most iconic silhouettes, the Superstar Boot Luxe TB, is reimagined with a custom shell toe, premium leather upper, and metallic Thug Club emblem.

The GSG9 Boot also receives an update — featuring an asymmetrical toe cap, an overdyed mix of suede, leather, and Cordura, and a signature metal emblem.

The apparel pieces also reflect the duelists’ aesthetic: washed sweat hoodies, sweat pants, and T-shirts meet track tops, track pants, and jackets — all finished with the brand’s signature metal emblem.

The collection is rounded off with a washed cap featuring faux-leather Three Stripes and a padded bag.
