adidas Superstar x Foot Locker Sylvia Park - Heeds Native Tattoo Residency
Description
For SS26, adidas Originals’ Superstar returns with a simple truth: icons don’t answer to time - they create it. Born from sport and adopted by culture, Superstar has always been re-authored by the people and communities who wear it.
To mark the launch in Aotearoa, Foot Locker Sylvia Park will host a one-day in-store takeover led by tā moko artist and contemporary Māori creative Heeds Native. The store transforms into a live expression of the campaign - where customers can step inside the story, not just shop it.
