History of the FutureCraft adidas Leggingsit OTR 7 8

The FutureCraft adidas Leggingsit OTR 7 8 takes its silhouette from the Adidas Marathon TR. The iconic trail running shoe introduced the brand in the running scene from Boston to Berlin. The trail runner was famous for footwear because of its fantastic grip and traction patterns that were used in most trail running events.

The design of the sneaker was personally overseen by the German brand’s founder Adi Dassler. The initial model also had a Dellinger web midsole for additional comfort. The Marathon stayed in the company’s archive for more than two decades before it was re-released in 2018.

Also released by Adidas Originals in 2018 as part of the Never Made collection is the FutureCraft adidas Marathon x 5923 which made use of the Iniki upper’s features fused with the Marathon’s with an improved Boost midsole.

The FutureCraft adidas Marathon tech, meanwhile, stayed true to its roots by retaining the composition of the FutureCraft adidas Marathon’s upper aesthetics and materials such as suede and mesh. The retro upper design also sits on the comfortable Boost midsole with a Dellinger web pattern that resembles the original vintage design.
