As a seasoned sneakerhead with decades of collecting under my belt, I can confidently say that the adidas Jabbar “Suede Pack” is a must-have for any serious basketball shoe enthusiast. With its rich history rooted in the legend that is Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, this revamped 1978 classic offers an exquisite suede construction that adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to these timeless silhouettes.
Product Name: Adidas Jabbar Suede Pack Shoes
This year, adidas refreshed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s signature shoe, originally released in 1978 as the brand’s first basketball shoe, for the holiday season by introducing a “Suede Pack.” This pack includes both high-top and low-top versions of the model. The new design features a luxurious suede material instead of the standard leather. The Jabbar High is available in a vibrant royal blue color, while the Jabbar Low comes in two variations: a deep red and a fresh kelly green. All three designs include a cream-colored Three Stripe graphic on the midfoot, as well as cream laces and heel tabs.
Each pair in this colorblocking design has a unique feature: high-tops maintain their tongue in the same color, while low-cuts go for a contrasting one. Lastly, each pair proudly displays an intricate gold foil artwork of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar performing his famous skyhook shot on the tongue as a nod to sneaker history. Interestingly, Abdul-Jabbar was adidas’ first signature basketball athlete and the first to have his image on a pair of shoes.
This upcoming holiday season, if you’re looking to add a touch of suede to your sneaker collection, the adidas Jabbar “Suede Pack” will be available on their webstore starting December 5. The low-profile versions are priced at $100 USD, while the high-top style comes in slightly higher at $110 USD.
