A Nod to the 1970s



"adidas Originals by OPENING CEREMONY" merges the advanced technology of sportswear giant adidas with the cool, youthful sensibility of New York-based select shop OPENING CEREMONY. This sportswear and footwear collection garners increasing attention with each release.

This season, iconic elements from the adidas archives are reinterpreted through the lens of "joie de vivre," a theme central to OPENING CEREMONY. The 2013-14 Autumn/Winter collection draws inspiration from "rock climbing" and "basketball," with a distinct 1970s aesthetic.

The "basketball" theme is expressed through a zip-up rider's jacket combining pebble leather and wool tweed, and a sweet peplum top featuring a subtle daisy print with basketballs at the center, creating an optical illusion. The men's line includes relaxed basketball shorts and outerwear with glossy, oversized paisley prints.

Meanwhile, the "rock climbing" theme features psychedelic prints inspired by mountain landscapes, rendered in muted tones of mint and caramel brown. Discover gathered mini-skirts in fleece fabric designed for sportswear, and seam-detailed dresses that accentuate the body's silhouette. A highlight of the collection is the hooded peplum jacket made with sweat-wicking, quick-drying Climacool® material.
The men's line offers a wide range of vintage-inspired items, including brightly colored fleece jackets, quilted bomber jackets, and balaclava-style hoodies that cover the entire head.

The "adidas Originals by OPENING CEREMONY" collection will be released in two drops, in early July and late August, at select stores and online.
