Hidden behind the tongue is the DIOS motto, ‘Make Shit Happen!’, with a stash pocket underneath to conceal your paraphernalia of choice. Graffiti-style text on the translucent outsole reads, ‘Did It Ourselves’, serving as a reminder to be your own biggest cheerleader. Additional branded laces with gold aglets and a matching gold hangtag are included for those looking to represent to the fullest. The silhouette is beefed up with thick laces and a chunkier midsole – the perfect canvas for DIOS' big statement.

DIOS will be releasing their adidas Superstar XLG through their brick-and-mortar location on November 22, with a general release on the adidas website set for November 24, at a retail price of $130.
