Adidas Stockholm

The other half of the City Series pair that people actually wore. Gary Aspden, looking back on the 1980s, put it plainly: "The shoes that I really remember people wearing were Dublins and Stockholms." It is the Swedish flag in shoe form: deep blue suede with yellow leather stripes and heel, gold foil lettering and a gum sole. Collectors have treated it as a City Series holy grail since its 1970s release, though sources disagree on the exact year. The 2021 reissue went back to the original blue and yellow on gum, so the modern pair looks the part. The Gore-Tex versions from 2016 and 2017 are a weatherproof take rather than the classic, so check which one a reseller is offering.
