The new CLOT Taekwondo by Caroline Hú transforms a martial arts icon into a study of movement, fragility and strength.
adidas Originals and CLOT, founded by Edison Chen, unveil a poetic take on the adidas Taekwondo silhouette reimagined by Caroline Hú. The collaboration blends the discipline of Taekwondo with the elegance of ballet, finding beauty in balance.
Featuring slim straps and an embossed upper with subtle heritage details, from the toe shape to the three stripes, the design is both minimal and expressive. Available in triple black, soft pink and off white, it reflects Hú’s romantic precision while preserving the performance roots that define CLOT and adidas Originals.
The campaign captures a dialogue between light and shadow, stillness and motion. “This collaboration embodies our philosophy of East meets West in the most beautiful way,” says Edison Chen, celebrating the union of strength and delicacy.
Based between Shanghai and New York, Caroline Hú is known for her intricate work with lace, tulle and pleats, merging emotion and craft in pieces that feel ethereal yet grounded.
