The Brain Dead x adidas Taekwondo Pack is coming this Fall 2025, with two versions of the silhouette.

The “Silver Metallic” variant shows off a more detailed version of the shoe. It’s a sturdier take that has a smooth upper and lace shroud, as well as a digital-esque chip on top. It’s a detail that adds a modern, almost performance-inspired edge to the shoe, creating an overall futuristic style.

Meanwhile, the “Core Black” version of the Taekwondo cuts back on the more exploratory aspects of the design. It removes the lace cover and chip for a more classic tongue-and-laces approach, and makes the overall look more understated. This, combined with white Three Stripes and a cream sole, lets it focus more on simplicity.

The two pairs of shoes show how Brain Dead can both have fun with the modern side of sneaker design, as well as pay homage to the adidas past. Whether you’re more interested in the avant-garde “Silver Metallic” or the more understated “Core Black” option, both shoes in the Taekwondo Pack give off a very different energy.

The Brain Dead x adidas Taekwondo Pack drops in Fall 2025 at adidas.com and select retailers.
