In the ever-evolving landscape of footwear collaborations, atmos and adidas have once again joined forces to create a masterpiece that captures the essence of the Tokyo sky at dusk. The atmos x adidas adiStar Cushion 3 “Twilight” is a testament to the brand’s ability to seamlessly blend retro and modern design elements, resulting in a sneaker that transcends time and trends.
The adiStar Cushion 3, a silhouette adidas recently revived as part of its 2000s retro initiative, serves as the perfect canvas for atmos’ creative vision. The upper is adorned with tech chrome accents that draw the eye to the metallic Three Stripes branding that proudly displays the iconic adidas logo. The midnight black foundation underfoot provides a stark contrast to the azure tones that dominate the profile, creating a visual representation of the “Twilight” theme.

Inspired by the mesmerizing hues of the Tokyo sky at sunset, atmos has expertly crafted a light blue to navy gradient that runs from toe to heel. This gradient not only adds depth and dimension to the sneaker, but also evokes a sense of tranquility and wonder, reminiscent of the magical moments experienced during the twilight hours.
While the atmos x adidas adiStar Cushion 3 “Twilight” pays homage to the Y2K era through its silhouette, it also incorporates design elements reminiscent of the graphic-clad sneakers of the 2010s, such as the adidas ZX Flux. This fusion of multiple eras of Three Stripes design demonstrates atmos’ keen understanding of adidas’ rich heritage and their ability to create a sneaker that appeals to a wide range of sneakerheads.
The atmos x adidas adiStar Cushion 3 “Twilight” releases on May 25th exclusively through adidas Japan and atmos Japan.
