Adicolor was a concept introduced in 1983 by adidas, with a sneaker named "adicolor". The sneaker was an all white training shoe, specifically created for the adicolor concept. After a little more than 20 years, adidas re-launched adicolor (2005), as a replica of the original. Presented in a wooden box, the adicolor low-top shoe comes with an all-white track jacket, a set of six colored acrylic paints, paintbrushes, and a wooden palette. The white leather can also be coated with sealant before or after painting. The similarities between the '83 version and the '05 version: "ghilly" lacing system, and a rubber outsole. Each pair comes with two types of laces, one containing Leonardo da Vinci's quote, "For all those colours which you wish to be beautiful, always start with a fresh white ground". Another fact about adicolor low-tops, only 1000 pairs were released.
