The adidas TRX Vintage first made its debut in the 1970s as a purpose-built marathon runner. Now, far removed from the performance scene, the Three Stripes has delivered a true-to-the-original take on the TRX for the modern-day, available now.

adidas’ archives are chock-full of vintage styles and models from the brand’s more than seventy-year history. The era of footwear from the Three Stripes between the ’70s and ’90s seems to be of particular interest to fans, an itch that adidas is always ready to scratch by releasing vintage models and colorways. This month, that release comes in the form of the TRX vintage, a long-distance running shoe from the 1970s built specifically for marathons. Now, the TRX is more of a museum piece, worn as a lifestyle model and used as a touchstone for future Three Stripes products for decades after its debut. The latest release brings the TRX Vintage back in its original blue color scheme, complete with premium materials for a limited-edition feel.
