Arsenal and London-based fashion house Maharishi have recently unveiled a limited-edition clothing line that merges adidas performance wear with streetwear, reflecting a distinctly London vibe. The collection, which includes both pre-game and off-field attire, features a unique camouflage pattern inspired by the Lunar Year of the Dragon. It showcases classic emblem prints and embroidery that celebrate the club’s rich history, and is worn by both the men’s and women’s teams.
In another development, adidas Spezial, despite its niche popularity in the US, is making a push to broaden its appeal. The brand has been working to enhance its presence in the American market over the past year, notably with the classic Handball Spezial. An upcoming collaboration with Maharishi in October is expected to further elevate its profile.
Maharishi, which previously partnered with Undefeated in 2014, is reuniting with adidas for the first time in nearly a decade. This new collaboration features the Spezial silhouette in a sleek, subdued colorway, predominantly black suede with a signature gum sole. Subtle camouflage prints and a gilded “MAHARISHI” logo add a unique touch to the design. The Maharishi x adidas Handball Spezial is set to release in October, promising to capture the attention of sneaker enthusiasts.
