In 2005, Adidas invited Ian Brown from Stone Roses to design a pair of trainers to celebrate the 35th Anniversary of their Superstar shoes. The influence of Ian's Manchester background was there for everybody to see - with a special wax coated leather that was designed to repel the Manchester rain and designed in the red and black of "Manchester United's red army, the greatest most-travelled fans in the world". There was some wonderful Ian Brown signatures, including gold tipped laces with the 'IB' logo imprinted on and a large distinctive gold 'IB' tag on the front.
The eye from the 'Music Of The Spheres' album cover was imprinted on the outside of the heel whilst on the back of the left heel, was the signature 'Ian' and, on the right heel, 'Brown' both written in red. The yellow inner soles also featured the lyrics to 'Longsight M13' and 'One Way Ticket To Paradise'.
Released in only a select handful of Adidas stores worldwide, and limited to just 5,000, the trainers sold out instantly and have become one of the most collectable pairs of shoes ever made.
