adidas Rom

adidas Rom

SERIES: ADIDAS CITY SERIES CITY SERIES (EUROPEAN CITY SERIES)

MADE IN: YUGOSLAVIA

ART.NO: 3030

The adidas Rom is one of the oldest adidas models out there, it was originally released in 1959 to celebrate the 1960 Rome Olympics but the re-release of the model in 1979 was the beginning of the popular and classic silhouette that we all know today.

Due to the vast time that the Rom has been around it is deemed by many as one of the most recognised and sought after models that adidas have produced. Whilst it is basically impossible to find the original Rom, it is still possible to find a few of the 1979 re-issue’s hanging around in select vintage shops both internationally and online.
