Music legend and Prophet Bob Marley finally gets Official Sneaker in collaboration with Adidas

Adidas is set to release its first official sneaker celebrating Reggae legend Bob Marley. Initially intended to coincide with the ‘Bob Marley: One Love’ biopic in February, the ‘Bob Marley x Adidas SL 72 ‘One Love” has faced significant delays. However, adidas has now confirmed an October 15 release date, marking a significant moment for both the sportswear giant and the Marley estate.

The special edition SL 72 — priced at $100 but expect to pay more on release — features a black suede and leather upper and a tri-colored red, green, and gold sole—a clear nod to the Rastafarian colors synonymous with Marley’s image.

adidas has also incorporated several unique details that could transform this footwear into a collector’s item, including a black-and-white image of Marley adorning the tongue; Marley’s signature is elegantly embossed in gold on the heel; and a co-branded graphic with “adidas” and “Bob Marley” repeating alongside each other in the insole.
