However, the event wasn't just about music. Guests were treated to event-themed refreshments, aptly named “3 Stripes” and “FL50,” and a showcase of Foot Locker’s 50th Anniversary-exclusive, limited-edition adidas sneakers— the Samba and Superstar—featuring distinctive black and white colorways with gold accents. These silhouettes, reimagined for Foot Locker's anniversary, served as a reminder of the retailer's long standing partnership with the Three Stripes brand, which has been a huge part of the past, present and future of Foot Locker.
