Japan based United Arrows recently revealed their latest collaboration with the Three Stripes. No it’s not done on the Superstar or the Stan Smith, instead they opt to go with the adidas Originals Tobacco.

The United Arrows x adidas Originals Tobacco comes dressed in a tonal upper constructed out of a navy colored suede construction. Adding to the monochromatic look of the shoe is the tonal branding placed on the tongue, side panels and heel tab. A navy colored sole unit and matching inner lining complete the look of the shoe. Expect this collaboration to release March 28th as a Japan exclusive for around $142.

Author’s Take

It’s a simple and subtle type of collaboration. Nothing really to go over being that it’s just a tonal suede upper. If you like this type of look you will probably like this shoe. Too bad it’s a Japan exclusive.

Did you miss out on picking up a pair of the adidas NMD models that dropped last week? If you did (like I did), you will have another chance to pick up a pair this weekend as adidas is set to release the adidas NMD Mesh Monochrome Pack.

Two mesh-covered NMD models make up the monochrome pack. The first pair comes in an all-white mesh upper complimented by the tonal branding hits and accents. The tonal look of the shoe is completed by adding an all white Boost sole unit. The second pairs comes in an all-black motif contrasted by the white Boost sole unit. Being that they’re constructed out of mesh and not Primeknit, these will only set you back $120. If you’re looking to pick up a pair, make sure you act fast because just like last weeks releases, these are defintiely not going to sit. Release date is March 26th.

The black pair is pretty sweet. Price point is decent as well. If you missed out on last weeks releases, consider this your second chance.

It looks as if adidas has decided to bring back the adidas ZX Flux Slip On. It’s been a cool minutes since we’ve all been able to get a fresh pair, but we won’t have to wait much longer to do so as two brand new tonal colorways are on the way.

The slip on version of the ZX Flux model comes constructed out of a breathable mesh upper that makes it a fresh option for the current season. The first two colorways you will be able to choose from include the “Running White” and “Collegiate Navy” option. Two tonal elastic straps appear on the midfoot while a tonal suede heel counter complete the major features on the upper. Both colorways will come with a white sole unit equipped with TORSION technology. Available now internationally, expect these to arrive stateside in the near future.

It’s not a bad looking shoe at all. I think I actually prefer it over the regular ZX Flux. I probably wouldn’t pay retail, but if I can get them for cheap, I’d be all up on them.

adidas and McDonald’s are celebrating the 39th annual McDonald’s All-American Game with a number of exclusives given out to some of the best young High School basketball prospects in the country. The likes of the adidas D Rose 6 Boost and freshly reimagined adidas D Lillard 2 with both Primeknit and Boost technology will be standard issue for both East and West All-Star squads. The red and black nature of the Primeknit uppers benefit from hints of yellow throughout while the iconic double-arch branding of McDonald’s logo lands on the respective tongues. Not only will adidas provide the uniforms for the All-American Game, but this year will also feature reflective 3M detailing on the slam dunk contest uniforms. Be sure to check out all of the gear created for the event and tune in this Saturday, March 28th to watch some of the best prep ballers in the country showcase their skills.

After giving you a look at the tonal grey colorway of the adidas Ultra Boost Uncaged late last week, fans of the newly altered silhouette should be happy to know that there will be more colorways releasing in the future.

Also releasing as part of the Spring 2016 lineup will be this bright red colorway of the adidas Ultra Boost Uncaged. As you can see the entire Primeknit upper is done in bright red with the heel counter providing some contrast as it’s done in black. The BOOST midsole is done in white while the rubber outsole remains black.

No exact release date is known yet but keep it locked to Kicks On Fire for any and all updates.

This looks more like a red orange colorway. Personally I would have liked to see it done in a darker shade of red with some more black detailing.

The sneaker world is a little bit different now that we have the adidas NMD in our lives. The casual equivalent of the popular Ultra Boost and a cheaper alternative to the much-hyped adidas Yeezy Boost, the NMD hits that sweet spot for those who want a pair of Boost sneakers that they can walk around in and not look totally like a hypebeast. After the success of NMDday last week that included multiple drops of the NMD in all styles, the Olive Camo is dropping on March 23 just the way we like it: Primeknit in a colorway that many people can get behind.

adidas dominated the day last Thursday with the release of over a dozen different adidas NMD R1 colorways. Looks like a few more are coming back this Saturday, March 26th, based on a recent tweet by NMD stockist Finish Line. This white/white and black/white pair was originally scheduled for April 9th at the retailer, but according to their tweet, we should expect them on Friday. These shouldn’t be confused with the “Monochrome” Pack as those featured a Primeknit upper. There may be more colorways releasing on March 26th, so stay tuned for updates.

Missed out on the first release of the Solebox x adidas Ultra Boost earlier this month? The good news is, now you have a second chance, because the “uncaged” Ultra Boost will be dropping at additional retailers this Saturday, March 26th. Another perfect collaborative sneaker execution by Berlin’s Solebox, the upper goes tonal grey and removes the midfoot Three Stripes “cage” and also modifies the heel counter with suede embossed with the shop’s logo. Selling out quickly from the exclusive release via Solebox, you’ll have another shot at the coveted collab this Saturday, so contact your local shop for availability.

Spring has officially arrived and coming with it are new colorways of the adidas Ultra Boost. We already know about the Triple White colorway of the Ultra Boost that’s expected to release some time in May, but what about the bright colors for the sunny season?

Don’t worry, adidas has got you covered with the colorful Ultra Boosts too. Up above we get a look at an upcoming colorway of the popular runner from the Three Stripes that comes with a white Primeknit upper and hits of color on the toe, tongue, and heel counter. Blue and Green Glow can be found on segments of the Primeknit upper while a softer shade of blue lands on the heel counter. Down below we have a white BOOST midsole and a black rubber outsole.

Take a good look at the shoes courtesy of the images above and let us know if you plan on picking up this colorway for the Spring season.

This colorway definitely gives off those Spring/Easter vibes, but I just can’t do the white Primeknit upper. I’m sure many people will be picking up a pair though.

Available today at adidas.com for $120 is the latest 5-Star cleat that’s inspired by the legendary Snoop Dogg. Drawing inspiration from the chorus of “Gin and Juice” from Snoop’s debut album, the lines “Mind On My Money” and “Money On My Mind” are featured on the medial sides of the cleats. But that’s not where the money theme ends; not even close, actually. Even the box has security stripes that are not unlike what you see on new bills today. “Gotta Hustle” indeed.

If you haven’t been paying attention, “cleathead” culture is a movement that adidas has really been pushing for a while now, with their continued support of youth football programs, including Snoop’s Youth Football League, and their attention-grabbing promotion every year daring NFL prospects to break the 40-yard dash record held by Chris Johnson of the Arizona Cardinals. It’s why you see videos like this where the kids are showing their love and support for the three stripes. Gone are the days when kids will just blindly follow a brand just because they have the best gear, it’s all about who was there from day one and adidas is doing a masterful job of that in the most popular sport in this country. If even only a handful of these kids that adidas has been sponsoring and decking out in cleats like the 5-Star 5.0 Money end up becoming superstar in the NFL, then it’s worth it to the three stripes.

After releasing an all-white colorway of the adidas Ultra Boost that erupted with popularity last year, the Three Stripes will be looking to achieve the same success with this upcoming Triple White colorway.

Just like last year’s version this colorway comes dressed in a pristine white hue from head to toe. Some details of this 2016 version include a gradient pattern on the breathable Primeknit upper along with silver Ultra Boost branding on the heel and a white rubber outsole. There is no exact release date yet but the adidas Ultra Boost Triple White is expected to release some time in the month of May for a retail price of $180. Stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for more information and images in the near future and make sure you visit our adidas Ultra Boost Triple White launch page for the latest updates.

No matter how clean the white on white Primeknit may look, I don’t think I’ll ever buy a pair of all-white Primeknit/Flyknit sneakers. These things are a dirt trap.

There’s no doubt that the adidas Yeezy Boost 750 and the adidas Yeezy Boost 350 are two of the most popular sneakers in the game right noe. In 2016 adidas and Kanye West will be adding another silhouette to the group with the adidas Yeezy Boost 550.

A new picture surfaced over the weekend that shows what many believe to be the adidas Yeezy Boost 750 in a new black colorway. The shoe comes in all-black and looks to feature a full Primeknit upper and shows resemblance to the Yeezy Boost 350. The main differences include a higher ankle and a translucent midsole.

Nothing has been confirmed and there is no release date yet for the Yeezy Boost 550, but stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for the latest updates.

Author’s Take

If this is indeed the 550 then it looks VERY similar to the 350 in my opinion. I don’t think it matters too much what it looks like at this point, people just want to get their hands on a pair already.

After collaborating with Hypebeast to release the first ever Uncaged Ultra Boost last year, adidas will now be linking up with blog site High Snobiety to release another collaborative Ultra Boost.

The High Snobiety x adidas Ultra Boost features a tonal grey Primeknit upper with a black inner liner and white BOOST midsole. High Snobiety branding then appears on the insoles and tongue tab for a clean finish.

There is no release date for the High Snobiety x adidas Ultra Boost at the moment but we’ll keep you updated as soon as we find out more. In the meantime take a look at the first images of the collaboration above and give us your initial thoughts.

Author’s Take

If the High Snobiety branding wasn’t added on the insole and tongue this would look like a general release colorway. It’s decent colorway, but I expected more from a collaboration.
