Mea culpa, loyal GQ readers: if your corner of the internet has been dominated by Adidas sneaker discourse this week, we know exactly who to blame. (It’s us!) A full year after we unilaterally declared the Samba the sneaker of the summer, the once-humble soccer shoe is vying to sweep the title yet again—and people feel all kinds of ways about it. Here’s the bad news: the Samba isn’t going anywhere. Here’s the good news: Adidas makes plenty of killer Samba-esque sneakers that won’t trigger a panic attack—or inspire smirks from your extremely online pals. So, in the name of kind-vibed journalistic service, we rounded up a murderers’ row of ‘em right here, in one handy list you can reference the next time you accidentally Spider-Man meme yourself. For once, the cure for your particular brand of unease isn’t therapy: it’s just another Adidas sneaker.
