Merging northern grit with weather-sealed GORE-TEX engineering, the hometown streetwear imprint and Three Stripes reunite for their fourth collaborative strike.
When Manchester independent streetwear vanguard Drama Call links up with adidas Originals, technical footwear gets custom-built for urban survival. Marking their fourth collaborative outing—and arriving hot on the heels of the brand’s first flagship store opening—founder Charlie Bows has turned his focus to the ClimaCool 1 GTX, creating a weather-resistant iteration built specifically to conquer the city’s infamous elements.
Anchored by the campaign titled Manchester Is My Mountain and fronted by Suggz, the sneaker comes constructed in black technical ripstop equipped with a full GORE-TEX membrane. High-gloss overlays and CORDURA heel paneling reinforce the upper, while electric lime green accents pierce through the dark palette across the tongue, eyestays, and heel pull. Finished with silver star details, co-branded sockliners, and a custom metal Drama Call hangtag, the runner sits atop a camo-patterned rubber outsole built for raw street mileage.
Releasing exclusively via Drama Call on November 14 before hitting the adidas CONFIRMED app on November 15, the project proves that true footwear collaborations are born straight from local geography.
