Adidas Superstars are a basketball style sneaker first released in the late 1960's. With their iconic shell-toe design, these have proven a popular casual trainer for nearly 50 years.
In terms of thickness, the outsole measures near 3cm, but the actual height they give is closer to 2cm. In the video below I measured the Superstars to give between 2 and 2.1cm, or a solid 0.8 inches of height.
