To celebrate World Oceans Day, adidas and Parley for the Oceans have announced the release of a limited number of the iconic running shoe, adidas x Parley.

The shoe upper is made from Parley Ocean Plastic, which is collected in coastal areas in the Maldives, and includes illegal deep-sea gillnets retrieved by Parley for the Oceans? partner organization Sea Shepherd. The shoe was created with adidas? most innovative production method: adidas Tailored Fiber Technology, a revolutionary manufacturing technique that enables unique footwear designs to be tailored to the individual needs of any athlete.

As of June 8, World Oceans Day, people can enter to win a pair through an Instagram contest. People are asked to create a video that shows how they pledge to avoid single-use plastic items and support Parley?s Ocean Plastic Program. The competition closes on July 31, 2016. The full rules and list of participating countries is disclosed on adidas and Parley?s social channels.

?This adidas x Parley running shoe is already iconic,? said Eric Liedtke, adidas Group executive board member responsible for Global Brands. ?It?s a shoe for game changers. We can?t wait to hear the stories of those who stand up, suggest creative solutions, take action and want to join us on our journey to clean up the oceans.?

Adidas and Parley for the Oceans have worked over the last year to turn ocean plastic into technical yarn fiber that can be used for performance products. This shoe is the first in a series of products that adidas can now produce using Parley Ocean Plastic.

Following the adidas D Lillard 2 Oakland that we showed you yesterday, Damian Lillard and adidas will now pay homage to Portland International Airport (PDX) by releasing the adidas D Lillard 2 PDX Carpet.

Featuring a Primeknit upper colored in a combination of white and gray, red accents make an appearance on the tongue, heel and insole branding as well as on the lower eyelets. Next we see an all-white bootie construction paired with matching Oak Print lace locks, heel counter and midsole. Lastly we see light teal hits placed on the laces, mesh panels and heel tab that pay homage to Portland International Airport’s iconic carpet print which is displayed on the icy outsole.

Dame will lace up the D Lillard 2 PDX Carpet as he travels to Asia during the adidas Take on Summer tour. He?ll join fans at basketball demonstrations and games, in-store appearances and more. Take on Summer tips-off today in Beijing and continues through June 14 with additional stops in Chengdu (June 11-12), Taipei (June 13) and Manila (June 14).

Look for the adidas D Lillard 2 PDX Carpet at select adidas retailers beginning on July 1st for $120.

Author?s Take

The PDX carpet print on the outsole is easily the best thing about this shoe. Also the fact that the upper is made out of Primeknit is pretty dope. Solid colorway of the D Lillard 2.

I?m not a fan of Yeezys, but I think this colorway is better than the original because of the gum sole. I?m sure people will go crazy over these just like all other past Yeezys that have released.

With Summer right around the corner it would have been the perfect time for adidas and Kanye West to release new colorways of the low-top adidas Yeezy Boost 350. Wouldn?t you agree? Unfortunately they decided to drop the new Grey Gum colorway of the Yeezy Boost 750 that people will still wear despite the very hot weather we?re expected to get this Summer.

But it?s not all bad news for fans of the 350 Boost. Adidas has confirmed that new colorways of the Yeezy Boost 350 will be releasing this year. Someone asked on Twitter whether adidas would be releasing the 350s again and adidas replied by saying ?It?s the 750s this time on June 11. More 350s coming later this year.?

@zzaaahhhrraaa It's the 750's this time on June 11. More 350's coming later this year. #YEEZYBOOST

So what colorway do you think will be dropping? Maybe the all-white pair that we?ve already seen a few times? Keep it locked to Kicks On Fire for updates.

If you are interested in picking up the 750 this weekend make sure to visit our adidas Yeezy Boost 750 Grey Gum launch page for release details and a list of stores that will carry the shoe.

You may recall the “PDX Carpet” edition of the adidas D Lillard 1 last year, inspired by the famous carpet design lining the floors of the Portland International Airport. The fun motif paying homage to the city Lillard hoops in is back one year later, for the all-new interpretation of the PDX carpet in the D Lillard 2. Going a little more subtle this time, the beloved carpet design is seen only beneath the translucent turquoise outsole, while the upper’s Primeknit construction comes in light grey with red and more turquoise for the accents. Dame will lace up the PDX Carpet colorway as he travels to Asia during the adidas Take on Summer tour beginning today, as he joins fans at basketball games, in-store appearances and more in Beijing, Chengdu, Taipei, and Manila. You can pick up your own pair of the D Lillard 2 “PDX Carpet” beginning July 1, 2016 at adidas.com.

This sample pair of the Yeezy Boost 350 features a white Primeknit upper with streaks of light tan in the same pattern as the previous 350 releases. In addition, the white outsole has a firmer texture than the last white-sole 350, the “Turtle Dove”. Enjoy a detailed look ahead and stay tuned for more exclusive looks at upcoming Yeezy footwear.

I?m still biased towards the 350. Although, I like the build of the sole unit for this one. It?s another solid colorway and it should obviously get a lot of attention.

I’m a fan of the design and the colorway is obviously timeless. I’m not much of a fan for that flat Swoosh, but the overall design makes up for it.

Clean new colorways for the hottest sneaker on the planet at the moment ensure that the popularity of the adidas NMD won’t be wavering anytime soon. Case in point: this “Light Solid Grey” look for the NMD R1 in its basic mesh build.
