adidas Originals Turns Zhongshan N. Rd. Into a Gym, Court and Café — But Only for 4 Days

Running August 13–16, the pop-up splits ORIGINALS SPORT and ACE BREEZE across a Pilates studio and tennis court setting, before winding down at a Messy Mark coffee bar and SW19 scent station — one full route, all in one space.

No. 10, Lane 48, Section 2, Zhongshan N. Rd. — a single building split into three completely different worlds: a Pilates studio, a tennis practice zone, and a coffee bar. This isn't three separate stores happening to sit side by side; it's the four-day pop-up route adidas Originals built for its new "Trefoil Girl" collection — running August 13 to 16, open until 5pm on weekdays and shortened to noon–6pm on weekends, with some areas viewing-only.

Holding the space together is a dialogue between two product lines. ORIGINALS SPORT carries on the brand's training-performance vocabulary, leaning into on-court athleticism, while ACE BREEZE shifts toward tennis-court elegance, translating the sport's posture into everyday styling. Yang Chin-hua, Chen Hua, and Liao Yen-chun appeared on site to demonstrate exactly how the two looks switch within a single day — not a seasonal shift, but a shift in setting.

Pilates Studio Meets Tennis Court

The pop-up teamed up with Tiger Iron Fitness to build the "Trefoil Pilates Studio," bringing ORIGINALS SPORT's training-ready function into real, moving bodies. On the other side, the "Trefoil Style Court" centers on racket sports, showing how the ACE BREEZE line moves from courtside into the street.

Coffee and Scent Off the Court

Originals Café brought in coffee brand Messy Mark to fold the Trefoil Girl aesthetic into the loosest, most everyday scenario of all — coffee culture. It's arguably the least "sporty" corner of the whole pop-up, yet possibly the one closest to how most people actually dress day to day. The space also features an experience zone from Korean scent brand SW19, closing out the route from gym to court to café with fragrance.
