The Haribo x Adidas DON Issue 6 is set to come in two “flavors,” red and white, made to resemble to classic gummy bears. Both shoes will feature the Adidas three stripes logo in lime green, along with gradient lime green piping around the eyelets. The shoes feature subtle green hits throughout and also sport a translucent outsole with the “HARIBO” logo inscribed on the bottom of the shoes. We’ll also see a Haribo logo replace one of the tongue logos as the shoes will come in special Haribo-inspired packaging as well.
All in all, this is a great concept from Adidas and Mitchell that somehow turned into a solid basketball sneaker. This isn’t the first time Mitchell opted for a gummy beat sneaker as his Adidas DON Issue 2 was inspired by the gold packaging of the candy.
The Haribo x Adidas DON Issue 6 is set to drop both colorways on October 31, 2024 for a standard retail tag of $130. As mentioned, the shoes will come in special packaging to resemble a pack of Haribo Goldbears and the shoes should release on the Adidas website. Expect quantities to be limited, so be sure to satisfy your sweet tooth and pick up both pair on release day.
