adidas Gazelle — releases & stockists
The Gazelle is the softest entry point into terrace adidas — a 1966 training shoe with a lower, rounder shape than the Samba. Seasonal suede colorways rotate constantly; the boutique-tier versions (Gazelle Indoor, collabs) are the ones that disappear. This page tracks which stores got them.
We're tracking 3 Gazelle releases, 3 currently live or in limited stock. The newest is the adidas Gazelle Indoor "Rust Orange / Collegiate Green / Gum" (April 18, 2026).
