Adidas Launches Beer-Proof München Oktoberfest Themed Sneakers

Everyone remembers the transcendent moment when basketball shoes became more than just utilitarian sports apparel. The year was 1985, when His Airness, Michael Jordan, leapt onto the sneaker scene with Nike’s inaugural Air Jordan 1’s and subsequently turned basketball shoes into multi-million dollar industry.

Today Adidas Originals announced that it will release a special Oktoberfest-themed version of their traditional Adidas München line. The München Oktoberfest sneakers which, go on sale in stores beginning September 2 are both beer and water resistant, perfect for those rowdy beer festival that can sometimes get a little out of hand.
