#KicksStalker: Basketball kicks get Avengers treatment

Black Panther x Dame 5.

MANILA, Philippines—At some point in our lives, we all wanted to be like our favorite superheroes.

Whether it’s to build a technologically-advanced suit like Iron Man, own an indestructible shield like Captain America or have supernatural powers like Captain Marvel, we wish we had it even if it’s fictional.

Adidas Basketball, though, has taken our fandom to a whole new level as it joined forces with Marvel to create a limited edition “Heroes Among Us” footwear collection inspired by our beloved superheroes.

Hoop stars, who possess out of this world athleticism, accuracy and grace, are the closest that we could get to seeing real-life superheroes in sports.

And like superheroes, these athletes have alter-egos too and each has their own unique skill as they carry their respective teams, cities and communities on their shoulders.

The “Heroes Among Us” line features new sneaker designs which will release on select Philippine stores April 24.

The collection includes an Iron Man-inspired Harden Vol. 3, a N3XT L3V3L silhouette with Captain America colors, a Black Panther colorway of the Dame 5, a Nick Fury take on the TMAC 1 and a Captain Marvel x adidas Pro Vision “ACE” which was unveiled by WNBA star Candace Parker of the Los Angeles Sparks.
