Adidas Jesse Owens Commemorative Sneakers

  

Jay Hicks of PreraceJitters.com  writes , Adidas has dropped these sick ZX800s in commemoration of famed Olympic runner Jesse Owens. The kicks are in a patriotic red, white, and blue striped colorway. Owens had a historic 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin by winning four gold medals. He is one of the most famous American athletes of all time.

These shoes pay respectful homage to him. The ZX800s feature a portrait of Jesse Owens on the inside, while maintaining the earlier mentioned red, white, and blue colorway on the outside to celebrate his triumphs for America. Look for these now at select Adidas retailers near you.
