Ever been on the Central Line and thought that the seat upholstery would make a decent fashion motif?

No, us neither.

But the design folk at Adidas have a keener eye for inspiration that the average Joe and so they’ve just brought out a new sneaker inspired by old Berlin subway seats.

And you know what? They’re pretty epic.


The ‘EQT Support 93/Berlin’ is being released on 16 January at the Adidas flagship store in Mitte and at Overkill in Kreuzberg, and there’ll only be 500 pairs – they’re that much of a limited edition.

Oh, and these trainers also come with a year’s free pass for Berlin’s public transport, valid from 16 January to 31 December 2018.



Pairs will go for €180 (£160) – so they’re worth it just for the pass alone.

But you know that eBay will be listing them for five times that amount within a few minutes of the sneakers going live.

Adidas, we take back everything we’ve ever said about the gum and piss-covered tube seats in London.

Please, for the love of God, come and make some Central Line sneakers that come with a year’s free oyster.
