About the Gino Iannucci x adidas Samba ADV RYR "Black Blue Bird"
The ADV platform underneath adds support structures and hard-wearing materials to the standard pattern, so the pair holds up against griptape while keeping the low, flat proportions that make a Samba recognisable from any distance.
The release came on 5 November 2022 at 110 dollars in the United States, ten above general-release pricing and a fair reflection of the extra build. Skate versions of heritage silhouettes occupy a strange position. They are working footwear for a small group of people and fashion product for a much larger one, and the same shoe has to satisfy both without looking compromised to either. The Samba suits that job because its shape needs no justification; it was a working shoe long before it was anything else. A black leather make with one saturated blue accent is about as close as the line comes to a dress version of a skate shoe.
