Last year was all about the Stan Smith and 2015's focus has been geared towards the Superstar, but that doesn't mean adidas has forgotten about other classics like the Rod Laver.

Known for its clean, minimal branding, the adidas Rod Laver is getting stripped down even further with this new Consortium pack. Available in both monochrome black and tonal white variations, these Rod Lavers feature absolutely no branding whatsoever on the upper. Instead, the side panels have been affixed with a faux-croc material, bringing another element of sophistication to an already classy silhouette. 

The adidas Originals Consortium Rod Laver VIN collection will be available on May 9 for $135 from Consortium retailers worldwide including Concepts, Dover Street Market, and Kith.
