Dragon Ball Z x adidas ZX 500 RM Son Goku

The remodeled adidas ZX 500 RM silhouette forms the backdrop for Son Goku’s character, assuming an orange and blue colorway that immediately harks to the character’s iconic Ki. The shoe’s classic mesh and suede construction stays true to the design of the original ZX 500 model, whilst ripped canvas on the 3-stripe mark and tongue reference the character’s ripped jumpsuit. Similarly, the shoe’s faded yellow mesh on the toebox and sides references the Super Saiyan transformation that would eventually lead to his victory in the battle. Finally, hidden details across the shoe complete the referential design, such as embroidery of Son Goku’s Flying Nimbus and the Kanji detail on the medial side, referencing the sound of the flying nimbus cloud. Dragon Ball details on the tongue, and Goku Kanji details on the heel patch complete the picture.
