Adidas and AVAVAV brings four-fingered gloves for your sneakers

Your feelings about this latest collaboration with Adidas depends on how you feel about four-fingered shoes. If you think that those viral footwear that showed people walking around like ducks or scuba divers on land were cute, then you’ll like this. If you think that it’s weird and maybe on the level of that other much-maligned footwear brand, then you’ll probably wonder what a leading brand like Adidas is doing having such an “unathletic” collaboration.

Designer: Adidas and AVAVAV

AVAVAV and its creative director Beate Karlsson were invited to do a pretty unserious collaboration with Adidas. The Superfinger Superstar is a pair of the latter’s famous sneakers but it with comes with a detachable four-toed rubber gloves which is the signature of the former. Basically it’s a “gloves for shoes” accessory that can also be used as a purse for small things that can fit in its tiny appendage like lipbalms, small perfume, and even a small phone.

The detachable four-finger footwear uses full-grain leather and is equipped with a rubber midsole, outsole, and shell toes. It also has an industrial strap so you can remove it and use the sneakers as it is. You can also the “superfinger” accessory with other shoes, not just the Adidas shoes that come with it and you can use the adjustable straps to fit it with the shoes you want to use it with. You can choose between the Core Black or Better Scarlet colors.

The Superfinger Superstar is obviously not meant to be used when you’re running or doing any athletic thing. It’s for just having fun with your footwear without really minding what other people think. And if you don’t like it, just go and get your Adidas footwear of choice.
