Adidas CU Torsion - Rare / Samples - Blue Orange - Size UK 8.5 - New, never worn, shop fresh.

These shoes were bought from an Adidas outlet, and to the best of my knowledge never released and sold through normal channels. They have 'SAMPLE FOR FOR RESALE" imprinted inside.

I've only managed to find info about these shoes from a trade catalogue (see image). The blurb reads:

"Based on a '90s outdoor shoe, the Adidas Originals blue Torsions C.U. has a stretchable allover print textile, vamp-to-collar design and features leather mudguards, a suede quarter and an EVA mdsole with Torsion bar support."

*Note this pair of shoes does not come with spare laces
