The arrival of global soccer icon Lionel Messi to Inter Miami has kicked off an exciting new era for the MLS club, both on the pitch and in the world of footwear fashion. adidas, Messi’s long-time sponsor, is celebrating the Argentine superstar’s move to South Beach with limited-edition Inter Miami colorways of two classic silhouettes – the adidas Samba and adidas Gazelle.
The Inter Miami x adidas Samba takes the timeless indoor soccer shoe and gives it a vibrant Miami makeover. The traditional black leather upper is accented with the club’s signature pink and white colors. Unique details include a stitched tongue label featuring the Inter Miami crest, adding an authentic touch. At $100, this Samba is an affordable way for fans to step out in Inter Miami style.
Messi, nicknamed “La Pulga” (The Flea), is pure footballing gold, so it’s fitting that the Inter Miami x adidas Gazelle boasts metallic gold “MIAMI” text on the heel, evoking vintage Miami Vice vibes. The rest of the shoe stays true to the sleek suede Gazelle heritage in a clean white and black colorway, allowing that pop of gold to shine. Priced at $110, the Gazelle is another budget-friendly way to join the Inter Miami hype train.
Both the Inter Miami x adidas Samba and Gazelle are available now via adidas.com and select retailers.
