I like the chukka-esque design and this colorway is simply versatile/stylish. I?m a sucker towards minimalist designs and this is a solid offering.

adidas Tubular Nova Primeknit Comes In Chili Red


The adidas Tubular series continues to hold down the trefoil brand’s lifestyle department even with most fans’ collective focus gazed at the likes of the Ultra Boost and NMD lines. For those looking to up their Tubular game, there’s no better option than the adidas Tubular Nova PK, a premium pair that adds a ventilated finish thanks to a Primeknit woven upper, a supportive synthetic cage overlay that directly references the original early 90s Tubular, and a slip-on sock fit for extra comfort.

We’ve seen a number of colorways add suede finishes and monochromatic tendencies, but today’s “Chili Red” look is a call to action for the bold. A combination of a vibrant red and black woven upper utilizes a matching red overlay and heel construction for a head-turning color choice. The flexible and ever-comfortable Tubular outsole unit gets a simple white shade as to not over-complicate things. What do you think of the look? Check out more photos below and grab your pair from international spots like Afew today.

The adidas Y-3 Yohji Boost Returns In A Clean Black Colorway


adidas Y-3 has been quietly bolstering its footwear lineup with a number of the three stripe’s latest technological endeavors from Primeknit additions to full-length Boost outsole units. We’re happy to see the return of the adidas Y-3 Yohji Boost, one the Yohji Yamamoto’s most accessible creations thanks to a simple slip-on construction complete with a split-tongue, familiar three stripe branding and a bold heel complete with the Y-3 logo.

The Y-3 imprint does best when that high-fashion instinct takes over and a simple black drapes the head-turning silhouettes like the Qasa and Kohna. The latest Yohji Boost mirrors that sentiment with a matching “Core Black” colorway of its own, but with minor reflective elements on the three stripe side panel branding for an effective deviation from the norm. What do you think of the look? The latest adidas Yohji Boost is available today from select retailers like 1st OG but we’ll keep you updated on a stateside arrival in the near future.

Top Coaches Feel Under Armour Has Overtaken adidas in College Basketball

There’s still no argument over who is #1 in the world of footwear and apparel in college basketball. That spot obviously still goes to Nike. But now more than ever, it appears adidas is losing their grasp on the second place position, as Under Armour continues to gain more ground in the basketball world. adidas has held their place behind Nike in NCAA basketball almost by default for years now, but that’s all changing as the still relatively new brand Under Armour, with the help of two-time MVP Steph Curry, is certainly giving the Three Stripes a run for their money.

Under Armour vs. adidas in college hoops was a hot topic in a recent CBS Sports poll of over 110 Division 1 basketball coaches, who were anonymously asked to share their opinion on which brand has a better hold in the current NCAA landscape. The poll (that included coaches at various schools sponsored by Nike, adidas, and Under Armour) found that a surprising 76% believed Under Armour now holds the #2 spot. The anonymous quotes from coaches who felt Under Armour has overtaken adidas include:

-“To me, Nike is running away with the No. 1 spot. Not even close. The No. 2 spot, I think, is Under Armour — and they’re leaving adidas behind. Adidas consistently puts out bad-looking gear and uniforms. The best thing they have going for them is the Yeezy shoe line, but I hear that it’s still almost impossible for some of the big-name adidas sponsored schools to get the shoes. I’d be pissed if we were sponsored by adidas.”

-“Not even close: Under Armour! They are actually nipping on the heels of Nike. When you look at which way prospects are trending AAU-wise, the popularity of Steph Curry and the number of universities that are switching to Under Armour, it’s hard to say anyone else is second.”

-“Under Armour. Not even close. Run a big-time event in a big-time facility in Atlanta during July. AAU programs and high school programs all over the country wearing Under Armour. They are locking up major football and basketball programs and in many cases entire athletic programs. The Steph Curry factor helps as well. I think adidas is a distant third now.”

Of course, not all opinions have been swayed yet. Although quite a minority, 24% percent of the coaches polled still think adidas holds the #2 spot. But many of them feel Under Armour isn’t far behind:

-“Under Armour has made great strides in the past five years, however I think adidas (especially with signing the NBA rookies they have) will remain number two for a while. Outside of Curry’s influence (which is great), UA just doesn’t have the appeal that the other two do with kids”.

-“Adidas. Proof is in the signing of six of the top 10 picks in the NBA Draft this year. Brand is still a lot stronger/more respected in the states even though Under Armour has covered ground.”

-“Still adidas in my opinion, but Under Armor is close to taking over the No. 2 spot.

Even without the opinions of the coaches, it’s clear to see that the tides are shifting in the world of college hoops. The upstart Under Armour has certainly moved in on adidas’ territory in college basketball, but for now, adidas still seems to be firmly planted in the #2 spot behind Nike at the NBA level with their impressive roster of athletes and the ever-growing popularity of Boost cushioning technology. But will the shift in college soon be reflected in the NBA?

An On-Foot Look At The adidas Futurecraft

It seems that adidas has all their great technological hits on the table right now, but the best is yet to come. Currently the public is going ham over Boost cushioning on the Ultra Boost and NMD models, but one sneaker that is sure to cause a stir is what we see here – the first prototype of adidas’ new Futurecraft technology. The shoe is somewhat nameless and Futurecraft actually refers to the creative 3-D printing concept and execution rather than the specific model, but there’s no better silhouette than the Ultra Boost (sans cage and heel) to give this sneaker such a hot look. Check out a closer on-foot shot on adidas designer Marc Dolce below and we’ll bring you the latest on the shoes when we learn more.

Author’s Take

I remember owning this shoe back in middle school/high school but I had no idea what it was. I think I prefer the mid top version cause the high is just too big for me since I’m a short guy. That $180 is pretty steep too. Not a good idea by adidas.
