atmos adidas ZX 8000 G-SNK 11 JS4601
With so many reissue and archival sneakers launching these days, the atmosphere of nostalgia hangs heavily over the modern sneaker scene. But nostalgia can evolve, and the most exciting collabs are those that carry new energy into the next chapter. That’s what we see here in the atmos x adidas ZX 8000 “G-SNK 11”.
The G-SNK series first launched in 2011 and was a notable entry in adidas’ diverse history of collaborations, thanks to snake skin overlays and fearless colorways. It became a signature series for the brand over the next decade. After the third entry in the series in 2020, the series has hit the gas pedal in the past five years and its already made it to the eleventh iteration.
If previous G-SNK models are any indication, this chapter should be no different in its knack for striking designs. Luckily for sneakerheads with less adventurous taste, this version tones things down—at least during daylight hours. A white mesh base is accented by mint green overlays, blue Three Stripes and pops of red. It’s all a balanced contrast, and the off-white midsole further speaks to classic ZX silhouettes of old. But sneakerheads know the real fun happens after dark, as glow-in-the-dark overlays are strategically applied to the snakeskin, bathing the panels in light. It’s a masterful way to nod to the G-SNK series’ most distinct calling card, while keeping things as eye-catching as ever.
Compared to the previous wild-and-wooly designs in the series, the “G-SNK 11” is actually quite wearable, which is really where the detail is that sneakerheads will appreciate. This is the type of sneaker that can be both a daily driver and a collectible all at once.
