The shell toe is usually the easiest part of a Superstar to spot, and on the adidas Superstar II “Year of the Goat,” it gets a smoky, translucent finish. The rest of the shoe sticks close to a familiar Superstar colorway. White Three Stripes run across black leather panels, while a strip of matching black suede follows the eyelets on either side of the tongue.

Deep red laces bring the first bit of color to the upper. Just above them, Chinese characters appear alongside an ornate graphic that mixes gold and red. The tongue carries the most detailed artwork on the shoe, though there’s another nod to the collection around back. Red detailing on the heel tab picks up the color of the laces. The pair also comes with a separate ornament that can be attached to the laces.

The Superstar II is one of several models adidas has lined up for its “Year of the Goat” collection. Two of the others come from adidas Basketball, which is preparing themed versions of Anthony Edwards’ AE 3 and James Harden’s Harden Vol. 11.

The adidas Superstar II “Year of the Goat” is expected to release during Holiday 2026
