The modern classic South Park joined forces with Adidas to celebrate 4/20 in 2021, the Campus 80s  to pay homage to everybody’s favourite stoner Towelie. Featuring lavender terry cloth uppers, the  tongues of the Campus 80s showed the Towelie’s big white eyes which turned pink and bloodshot  when exposed to UV light. One can say this was one of the most creative releases in the recent  times. The interior tongues also featured stash pockets and the quotes, "Don!t Forget to Bring a 

Towel! and "I Have No Idea What!s Going On.! 

3. Nike Dunk High Premium SB ‘Quagmire’ -

4. Dragon Ball Z X Adidas - 

Even if you don’t watch anime, you may have heard of Dragon Ball Z. This show is known for it’s  intense fight scenes, and this franchise has been running on and off since 1986. Adidas must have  shared the love for this show because they made a Primeknit pair of kicks made to look almost ex actly like the dragon from Dragon Ball Z. Some more styles from the collaboration include, ZX500  RM $Goku”, Ultra Tech $Vageta”, and Kamanda $Majin Buu.” 

5. SB Dunk ‘Homer’ and ‘Marge’ -

These two pairs of sneakers are styled after the parents of the longest running cartoon on television,  The Simpsons. Homer got his own pair of Dunk Lows which featured a white, yellow and pale blue  colorway along with a black midsole and gum soles. The colors on this shoe are meant to reflect  Homer’s white shirt, blue pants and yellow skin.  

The High-Top Dunk SBs dedicated to marge had a more flashier design. Bright yellow and blue  were the primary colors and they added a lime green swoosh to make the shoe pop even more. This  pair is also styled after the colors of Marge!s outfit and skin color.
