What the adidas gazelle mens has in overt branding from a profile view is counteracted by the simple trefoil logo on the heel tab. The Gazelle 2 also has the Adidas name written out on the heel, while in general features a much larger tab that extends onto the sides of the shoes. Really, this one just comes down to personal taste.
It’s Kate Moss’ favourite sneaker, a street style stalwart, and a rightly named retro icon. The adidas gazelle womens is enjoying another moment. It had a period of respite when it was all about the Superstar, which we are still mad for. But there’s something chicer about the Gazelle. Maybe it’s the dainty profile, the almond shaped toe or the myriad of colours.
Like a lot of adidas gazelle pink products, simplicity is a key feature of this silhouette and it is certainly one of the qualities which has made it a timeless/retro staple. It was one of the most popular trainers to practice in or complete in up until the late 1970’s and now it is one of the most prominent shoes in fashion, not many other designs have enjoyed the same longevity as this.
The origins of its adidas gazelle sale name and its purpose have been much debated. Some think that it is a running shoe named after Wilma Rudolph, the US sprinter who won three gold medals wearing adidas at the 1960 Olympics in Rome and earned the nickname ‘The Black Gazelle’. But Wilma retired from competitive racing in 1962, four years before the commercial release of the shoe. Although the Gazelle was built on a track shoe last, adidas went on to test the shoe with the West German national football team and top international handball players which would suggest a more general purpose athletic model.
