Rekord reworked as the Adidas Overdub trainers

You may think this is the Adidas Rekord. However the new reputation for this style is the Adidas Overdub trainers.

So what's inside a name? Quite a lot really. When it comes to Adidas, using a lengthy legacy is a reasonably selling point. So it seems odd the Adidas Rekord continues to be taken off the range and replaced with an almost identical design utilizing a new name.

Why? I honestly don't know. Although seem a smaller amount today, the Adidas Rekord has been in the Adidas range for decades. The design has changed just a little over the years but it's still a classic look and one that would sell by the bucketload whether it got another reissue.

But it hasn't. Instead, you are looking at this one, which doesn't actually have a name printed onto it. That's surprising.

What it will have is a similar look without having to be an identical copy. The sole looks a little different, but the overall look is in preserving the last reissue, that we think was in the early noughties.

Of course, a leather upper, suede toe, contrast detailing and two lovely old-fashioned colour options of white with green detailing and blue with white detailing. Personally, I love both of them.

If either colours appeal (and you may see both all angles in this article) they are offered now, selling for 64.95.
