definitely adidas but not part of any adidas adicolor release i know about. i think the seller just put that in the title to draw attention to it. here is an ebay item # for the only adicolor leather track top that i believe has been released: 160190948370. not sure if its authentic or not.

Welcome king monkey - unfortunately you cannot buy real Adidas leather jackets for £30! So leave that one alone....
The Adicolor A15 is the one that Kwimbie pointed out, but apparently they have been faked too (as far as I'm aware the originals came with the wooden case like the shoes). They normally go for £300+ tho.

Your correct shotta!!the A15 comes pretty much as the W1 adicolors came!! wooden box,paints,mixin pallet etc etc and limited to 500 i think.Price your talking £300+ depending on size but they are so worth it their incredible jackets and the leather is amazing quality.Infact the whole set up of the jacket and shoes is the dogs bolloxs in my opionion
It's not the size of the feet!!it's the amount of quality on em

Hi guys thanks for the feedback, reason is ive been stung before with the music collection number 16 (Ian Brown) i suppose the clue only 500 made should be a bit of a give away,but weve all been stung,just like to say this forum has some great info.cheers

Thats only for the box set fella!!!im unsure whether they released the jackets on there own!!am sure someone will know,But my guess is that they did
p.s that 1 you gave the item number for is a deffo fake!!stay away from that crap is my advice.There's some nice superstar leather jackets on the bay @ the moment i'd go for 1 of those if i was you.Hope this helps

Hey welcome to the boards king monkey! I've been to the adidas originals shops in prague and vegas too! But only bought stuff from the vegas. Anwyays, yeah the item your looking at is a def fake. Infact, there are a few seller's using the same pics, and they are all coming out of hong kong or china, so it's prob the same person with multiple accounts, and it's a dead giveaway.

Just wanted to let you know, there were 500 pairs of W1 trainers made and only 250 of the W1 jackets.
In the adicolor range, the apparel was released in half the quantities of the trainers.
