It is undoubtedly one of the most famous and iconic shoes ever produced by Adidas. It has a long history dating back to the mid-1960s. Although the shoe may be considered relatively simplistic by modern standards, its simple and clean silhouette has garnered numerous fans and ensured that it has been in continuous production for nearly 50 years.
One of the most classic low tops in the history of sneakers, the Gazelle started as soccer shoes but quickly became a symbol of street style.
Origin
The advantage of suede
It was the first Adidas shoe made from suede. At that time, athletic shoes were made from leather. The advantage of suede is that it is much lighter and more flexible, while still maintaining a good level of protection for the foot. By the 1970s, it was one of the most popular models and Adidas experimented with different soles as well as some new features.
Heritage
It is quite interesting that the Gazelle would start a legacy with the introduction of other suede styles, such as the Campus & The City Series. It experienced great success throughout the '80s for its lightweight and sporty appearance, although it was truly the '90s version that saw the commercial boom of the Gazelle with the vast array of available colors.
