adidas Skateboarding reveals the first colorway for Global Pro team rider Marc Johnson for the Matchcourt Mid. Keeping to design cues from the brand’s rich heritage in tennis footwear, the Matchcourt Mid infuses the classic Matchcourt aesthetic with skateboarding performance.
Pantone 542, the official school color of the University of North Carolina, known as “Carolina Blue”, serves as the inspiration for the signature colorway of the MJ x adidas Matchcourt Mid. The Blue pays homage to Johnson’s home state and skateboarding roots. The Matchcourt Mid x MJ’s pig nubuck upper in “Carolina Blue” perfectly complements the brand’s signature three stripes in white. The shoe also features eyestay construction for durability and to prevent wear and tear; an abrasion-resistant rubber toe cap; and a molded PU sockliner for comfort and impact cushioning.
The Marc Johnson adidas MatchCourt Mid releases this Friday, March 24th. You will be able to purchase on adidas.com.
