BSTN x adidas Rivalry Low 86 Real Madrid

The next chapter of the BSTN x adidas European Basketball Heritage Series has arrived. As a follow up to 2022’s BSTN x adidas Forum collaboration that was dedicated to the Panathinaikos B.C. and Jugoplastika Split basketball teams, this latest installment of the BSTN x adidas European Basketball Heritage Series pays tribute to the continent’s most successful basketball team; the 11-time EuroLeague Champion Real Madrid. For those not up to game, BSTN’s European Basketball Heritage Series is a celebration of the unique local hoops cultures and a humble tribute to those, who were essential in creating them. The BSTN x adidas Rivalry Low 86 Real Madrid features a clean iteration of the Rivalry 86 Low dressed in a luxe Cream leather upper paired with premium leather lining that results in a premium look and feel. Adding some oomph to the sneaker’s design is a Gold Real Madrid crest on the tongues and the UV BSTN and Three Stripes logos on the lateral and medial sides, respectively. The inclusion of said UV logos allows the branding to transition from White to Purple with the help of sunlight. Although UV treatment has been used on sneakers before, it’s always a welcomed and dope feature in our opinion. Other notable details include the Purple insoles, the White laces with metal lace tips and the additional collaborative branding can be found on the heels. Of course, the sneakers will also come in special packaging that will feature eleven stars, one for each European title the franchise has won.
