adidas Marathon TR OG Epochal Blue

The adidas Marathon TR made its debut way back in 1979 as a calculated response to the needs of trail runners, adapting the popular Marathon silhouette with a now iconic grippy trail outsole. For January 2018, adidas Originals brings back the Marathon TR in its OG form, stepping out in two essential, nostalgic colorways. True to the blueprint of its time, each shoe in the release features a classic mesh construction with structural suede overlays, placed atop an EVA midsole with the Marathon’s distinctive mesh on the midfoot. The design is then rounded off with a metallic nubuck heel patch and 3-stripes mark, trefoil tongue branding, and of course, the Marathon TR’s essential rugged trail outsole. Stepping out in Royal Blue and base green colorways, it’s a welcome return of a trail classic, in a form that fits the 20th century style of its original design.
