adidas Originals has announced a special edition Bob Marley SL 72 sneaker to honor the legendary reggae artist’s lasting influence on music and culture. This unique collaboration reimagines the classic SL 72 silhouette, fusing sportswear heritage with Marley’s iconic style.
The Bob Marley SL 72 sneaker features a smooth black nylon upper complemented by suede and leather accents. The shoe’s signature element is its vibrant yellow, green and red midsole, which echoes the colors of the Jamaican flag and Rastafarian symbolism. Each pair features a distinctive Bob Marley tongue label and custom sockliner, with the artist’s signature emblazoned in gold foil as the finishing touch.
Originally designed for road running, the SL 72 has evolved into a versatile lifestyle sneaker worn by trendsetters and athletes alike. This special edition pays tribute to Marley’s authentic connection to adidas and celebrates his status as a cultural icon who frequently wore the brand’s footwear.
The collaboration between adidas Originals and the Marley family represents a fusion of music, sports and fashion. It speaks to the enduring appeal of the SL 72 and the legacy of Bob Marley.
