Globally, 19 Prada stores will carry the styles in cities ranging from Milan, Moscow, Zurich, Paris, London, Munich and Dubai to Tokyo, Seoul, Macau, Hong Kong, Beijing, Singapore and Taipei. In the U.S., the products will be available at Prada’s New York Broadway store, in Los Angeles, and Miami. They will also retail online through adidas.com and prada.com.
