Up above you’re looking at a new shoe from adidas known as the adidas Tubular Shadow. Looks pretty familiar, right?

That’s because everyone has been bashing the shoe because of how is similar it looks to the Yeezy Boost 350. Each pair pictured above features different materials on the upper with similar soles. While it doesn’t appear that this Tubular Shadow comes equipped with Boost technology, there’s no denying the similarities it has to the 350 Boost.

No word on a release date yet but check out these early leaked looks and let us know your thoughts. Should Kanye be mad about these?

Here’s what adidas thought when they made these, “We know not everyone can buy Yeezys so here’s an alternative.” Come on adidas, it’s not a good look to rip off your own sneakers.

The adidas Ultra Boost Uncaged is currently taking up all the attention when it comes to adidas, but there are also other Boost runners that are just as stylish and comfortable.

One of the new options that began releasing earlier this year is the adidas Ultra Boost ST. This revamped version of the extremely popular Ultra Boost features a Primeknit upper with a slightly different look than the original as can be seen on the branding stripes on the side panels, and a couple of other areas of the shoe. Navvy dominates the upper of this pair along with maroon accents on the inner liner. Hits of Black have also been added on the branding, heel, toe, tongue, and rubber outsole.

Anyone looking to add this pair to their collection can do so now for $180.

If this pair had more hits of maroon then I would haver seriously considered buying myself a pair. Still nice, but I don’t think I would buy myself a pair.

There’s no doubt that the adidas NMD has been a huge success for the three stripes. Just when you thought the brand was losing steam after the monumental hits they had in the Ultra Boost and Yeezy lines, the NMD changed everything with its minimalist style that just blends into just about anything you happen to be wearing at the time.

But adidas is wasting no time as they are getting ready to update the NMD with the release of the new adidas NMD XR1 in a variety of colorways including the Olive colorway you see up top. Learn more about in the video and let us know if this is your next must-have from adidas Originals.

Last week we saw the release of the Pharrell x adidas NMD Human Race in the Yellow and Black colorway which sold out instantly. Now we get a first look at what may be the next colorway to arrive at retailers.

Presented above is the Red/Footwear White pair which utilizes the same exact construction as the yellow pair with the only change being the colors used on the shoe. A Red Primeknit upper dominates the shoe with White detailing on the “HUMAN” “RACE” words as well as on the Boost midsole. Black accents can then be seen on the lacing system above the midsole and the EVA inserts.

There is no confirmed release date for the red Pharrell x adidas NMD Human Race but the retail price will be $240. Stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for updates.

I like this shade of red, it almost looks like burgundy. I’m sure this pair will sell out just as fast as the yellow pair.

Just last month we saw adidas give the Rod Laver silhouette an upgrade by covering it with a couple of new materials in the OG colorway.

Now the Rod Laver is back and better than ever as adidas has decided to give it the Primeknit treatment. The shoe will release in two different colorways, one option coming in white and the other in Navy. The adidas Originals Rod Laver Primeknit features the signature toe panel, superlight PU tooling, and of course the new Primeknit upper.

Grab your pair at select adidas retailers beginning on August 5, 2016.

Author’s Take

It’s cool to see more and more adidas sneakers get covered with Primeknit uppers, but I’m just not a fan of the Rod Laver.

adidas Originals has been remixing some of their most iconic performance turned lifestyle models with the addition of the premium woven Primeknit material for the past few seasons. We’ve seen the adidas Stan Smith and adidas Superstar adopt the seamless woven upper for fresh individual takes perfect for any season, and now the iconic adidas Rod Laver is back in a new and exciting way. The tennis model returns as the adidas Rod Laver Primeknit in two upcoming monochromatic colorways in either white or navy. The signature toe panel stays intact as does the original midsole and outsole unit complete with herringbone traction. By utilizing Primeknit, the three stripes has created the lightest and breeziest take on the Rod Laver silhouette yet. Stick around for a better view of the trefoil’s latest Primeknit transformation after the break and know that shops like Concepts will be stocking this collection on August 5th.

The post The adidas Ultra Boost Uncaged Releases In Olive Green Primeknit appeared first on Sneaker News.

About a month ago we gave you a first look at the adidas NMD Olive. Today we have more images of the shoe but these new pictures show that the appearance of the shoe has been tweaked just a bit.

The adidas NMD appears to be made out of a mesh upper. The entire mesh as well as the eyestay, branding and laces come in a tonal Olive colorway. Contrasting hits appear by way of the heel pull tab, pods on the midsole and of course, the White Boost midsole/ Black rubber outsole.  One of the new features shown on these images show that White seam lines appear on the upper instead of the initial Olive lines we saw before. Do these changes make the she look better or worse? Expect these to drop in the near future.

Author’s Take

I really hope the white seam lines aren’t in the final version. If they come with tonal seam lines these may very well be my first pair of NMDs.

You’ve never seen a Stan Smith quite like this before. Let me break it down for you. For starters, adidas removes the laces from the shoe and replaces them with not one, not two, but three velcro straps. Giving the shoe some added boldness is the fact that it comes covered in Red from head to toe. The leather shoe comes with embossed branding on the tongue and heel, while the perforations on the side panels act as the Three Stripes. Obviously, this shoe is not for everybody, but what I want to know is how many of you all have what it takes to pull these off. Coming to a store near you, would you be down to pick up a pair of these?

Author’s Take

I don’t mind the color, but when you put it on a sneaker with velcro straps, that’s a little too much for me. If I had a granpa, I’d hook him up with these, but these are too much for me.

If you managed to pick up a pair of the adidas NMD Human Race a few days ago, consider yourself lucky since the shoe sold out almost instantly. There is now way you can pick up a pair today at retail despite the fact that the shows were priced at a hefty $240. Now all you need is the Green pair you see above. Wait, what?

Pharrell recently took to his IG to show off his customized version of the adidas NMD Human Race. This version comes in a tonal Green upper accompanied by the “Hu” branding embroidered on to the shoe. Not sure if it was on purpose or not, but this Human Race logo closely resembles the “Human Element” symbol found on the periodic table. If these somehoew end up releasing, would you be down to get a pair? Let us know in the comments below.

Metal toes on Superstars are no longer considered something “new”. We’ve already seen it done a handful of times over the last several months. This time around adidas rocks the metal toe once more, but it’s looking a bit different than usual. Check it out.

The adidas Originals Superstar Metal Toe Copper is designed to have the toe look like copper in its natural state. The textured toe ends up giving the shoe even more of a raw feel which I’m pretty sure many of you will like. The rest of the shoe comes in a Black leather upper sitting on top of a White sole unit. Black lining, branding and laces complete the shoe. Said to be for the ladies, you’ll be able to get a pair in the near future as they have recently been spotted at select international retailers.

I was hesitant at first, but the more I see it, the more I like it. Very clean looking version of the Superstar. If these drop in men’s sizes, I’d be down to get a pair.

The adidas Originals Stan Smith is one of the most versatile sneakers in the game. It subtle build makes it the perfect canvas to put anything and everything on it. This time around adidas has decided to add some polygon shapes on the shoe. Let’s get a closer look.

The women’s adidas Originals Stan Smith Polygon comes in an all-White base covered in embossed polygon shapes. The rest of the shoe included tonal branding on the tongue, White laces and lining all sitting on top of an off-White sole unit. The shoe is said to already be available internationally, so it’s only a matter of time before they arrive stateside.

Not bad. It’s still a but subtle, but it’s different enough to make a statement. I wouldn’t pick it up, but that’s only because I’m not crazy about the model to begin with.
