It takes something unique for us to depart from the strict edict to cover only sneakers, but from time to time something catches our eye and makes us sit up and take notice. For this rare departure, it helps that the item is made for one of the biggest shoe companies in the world–Adidas.

In honor of the launch of their new brand center in Beijing, Adidas has commissioned new customized furniture from designer Dorothy Tang and the result is pretty astounding. One can only hope that they put some of these items up for charity auction on eBay–or make them on demand for their loyal fanss who assuredly would decorate their home with pieces like these.
Thanks to our friends at High Snobiety for the photo.
