Drama Call x adidas Superstar II “Head North” Celebrates Manchester’s Metrolink in Style
Manchester-based label Drama Call teams up with adidas Originals for a bold rework of the timeless Superstar II, delivering a fresh homage to its hometown with the aptly titled “Head North.” Blending local pride with streetwear flair, the collab draws heavy inspiration from the city’s Metrolink system, reinterpreting the urban landscape through detailed design and colour storytelling.
The sneaker has a sleek black leather upper offset by crisp white interiors, heel tabs, and laces. Vibrant teal Three Stripes pay tribute to the colour of Manchester’s trams, while an insole map print lets you walk the city’s streets—literally—with every step.
Drama Call’s signature star motif steals the spotlight, appearing in layered forms throughout. The iconic shell toe gets a celestial remix with embossed mini stars, while the heel and tongue feature striking black and white star graphics. A translucent outsole hides a graffiti-style star print in teal, adding an unexpected flash of artistry underneath. Between the stripes, perforated stars bring in subtle texture, and a metallic silver star-shaped hangtag tops off the look with premium flair.
The Drama Call x adidas Superstar II “Head North” drops exclusively on March 22 at a Manchester-based pop-up. Full event details will be revealed via Drama Call’s Instagram on March 21—so stay tuned if you’re ready to ride the line between heritage and hype.
