Upon the release of his second collaboration, the “Detroit Player” Pro Models, Big Sean stepped into the same sneaker weight class as fellow Motor City icons Eminem and Barry Sanders. Still grinding, the Big Sean x adidas Metro Attitude sees his third formal shoe launch. Departing from D-Town and using Hawaii as inspiration, this Metro Attitude tells the tale of Sean’s rise and self discovery while recording with the G.O.O.D. Music family on the island of Oahu. Black sand and tropical foliage are expressed on the suede and floral printed upper, with gold accents paying tribute to the artist and his lyrics. Look for the Big Sean x adidas Metro Attitude to launch at select adidas Originals accounts on September 13th and enjoy detailed images from our own Kin Kwan below.
