Most infant Superstars carry a licence. This one does not, and it is better for it: Core Black textile across the upper, Gold Metallic on the branding, Cloud White on the shell toe, which is close to the black-and-gold recipe adidas sells to adults.
The 360 platform underneath is what separates it from those adult pairs. There is no lace closure, because the wearer cannot use one. The upper is a stretch bootie the foot slides into, the collar holds it in place, and the moulded rubber shell toe absorbs the crawling and scuffing that ruin the front of a small shoe first. adidas released it November 30, 2022 at $50, the infant price point. Colourways like this are the reason the kids Superstar line keeps selling: it is the adult shoe, reproportioned, with nothing to tie.
