Gazelle Indoor - Bluebird/White

Whether on the feet of Kate Moss; the Beastie Boys; Björk or any number of fashionable people of the last 50+ years, the adidas Gazelle remains an icon itself. Their simple suede uppers with white stripes have become the archetypical adidas design since first releasing in 1966.

Compared with the original '66 release, 1979's Gazelle Indoor sports a slightly different upper with a wider toebox. If you know anything about old Gazelles then you'll know this is a welcome design change. The biggest visual difference between the different versions is the translucent cup sole of the Gazelle Indoor which was originally designed to optimise traction for hardwood floors. Nowadays the main advantage to the gum sole is the fact it just look bangin' but both functions are equally important.
