TLDR: The Whitaker Group honours underrepresented artists with the travelling exhibition ‘Queens & Kings: A Tale of Two Cities’. To celebrate the milestone, a limited edition 38a x adidas Superstar model was given away to select creatives, highlighting Whitaker's mission to unite art, culture and community.

The Whitaker Group, led by James Whitner, continues to champion underrepresented voices in arts and culture. The expansion of 38a Gallery from Pittsburgh to Charlotte sets the stage for ‘Queens & Kings: A Tale of Two Cities’ - a travelling exhibition highlighting minority artists.

To celebrate this special moment, the Whitaker Group has collaborated with adidas to design an exclusive Superstar. The ‘Queens & Kings’ edition features a black and white design inspired by playing cards. Special details such as the ‘Q’ and ‘K’ back tabs, card-based insoles, high-quality embossed leather and thick herringbone laces set the tone. Lettering such as ‘To the Queens + Kings’ on the tongue and the 38a logo round off the design.

The sneaker is not available in stores and was instead given away to selected creatives and contributors as a token of appreciation.
