The Vespa Adidas Contest




As you all know, L and best buddy Mike are Vespa afficionados. They are both registered in the upcoming Deck Your (Vespa) Ride to The (Adidas) Party contest.
The two are abuzz about the designs they have in mind. They both talk about simplicity, as any Vespa purist would be. This contest is in celebration of 60 Years of Soles and Stripes. Special thanks to Dandee who will be executing L's designs. While Vespa boys in the scooter forums talk about oggling the girls and meeting Borgy and Tim Yap at The Embassy on Feb 27, I dream about Italy.




L talks about the Adidas-Vespa collection and lusts for the tan and white shoes. He has not seen the brown shoes I found from Streething.com, straight out of the Italy showroom.
























Mike already has the Vespa Gran Lusso in white. It is mid-cut, with a sleeker silhouette and some crispy leather uppers. Priced around P5295 (with 20% discount at The Adidas Originals shop in Trinoma).










While there I also saw vintage Adidas shoes.










Who are the Vespa boys anyway?





















They are a group of people who love the masterful design of the motorcycle (from an aeronautical engineer and airplane makers) and the freedom the vehicle brings!
