adidas and Tracy McGrady are ready to take over 2022, after announcing a rerelease of the iconic adidas T-Mac 1″All-Star” the duo is back with more. Before he donned the number 1 for the Raptors and the Magic, NBA Hall of Famer Tracy McGrady was #3 for the Auburndale Bloodhounds in Auburndale, Florida. During his final season at Auburndale before transferring to Mount Zion Christian Academy in North Carolina, Tracy averaged a whopping 23 points, 12 boards, and 4 assists.

To honor those 3 formative years, adidas is returning to one of Tracy’s most iconic silhouettes, the T-Mac 3. Originally released in 2017, the adidas T-Mac 3 “Auburndale” comes dressed in a white leather base with blue suede on the medial side and the heel. Bursts of yellow shine through on the ankle collar, sock liner, and the plastic stripes on the heel and lateral side. Instead of the T-Mac 1 logo appearing on the silhouette’s lower tongue, it has been replaced by Tracy’s high school number 3.

Get ready for the return of the adidas T-Mac 3 “Auburndale” coming in the upcoming months via adidas.com and select retailers. As always, our sneaker monitors and release day strategy will have members ready for drop day.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
