Fall season is just a few days away. Are you ready for it? If you need some Fall appropriate footwear, maybe you should take a look at the brand new adidas Y-3 Qasa Boot. Yohji Yamamoto and adidas collaborate once more and transform the beloved Qasa in to a boot this Fall. Let’s take a closer look.

The adidas Y-3 Qasa Boot was originally unveiled back in January during a runway in Paris while introducing the seasonal collection. Now it’s available for purchase! The boot attempts to keep many of the shoe’s original aesthetics. It still comes with a Tubular-esque sole unit. It still rocks the elastic strap across the upper. It remains constructed out of a neoprene upper and rocks a set of waxed laces. The difference lies in the extended collar that converts the shoe into a boot while also adding six more set of eyelets to help give it that boot look. The boot also comes with premium leather and a carbon fiber-like textile, while inside you will find performance Poron lining to complete the major features on the boot. Out now, pick up a pair of your own for $384.

It does look like a Y-3 creation. If you like the original Y-3 Qasa, I’m pretty sure you’re also going to look the boot version. I have no need for it, but it does have a pretty cool look.

So the adidas Yeezy cleats made quite the splash on NFL Opening Weekend. Von Miller wore the 750 during warm-ups on Thursday night and DeAndre Hopkins made history by being the first to score a touchdown in the 350. The cleats went viral, which is a common occurrence in the NBA, but not so much in the NFL, save for customs that never got worn in the actual game because the league hates fun

But since Yeezys are allowed on the field, surely that means the door is now open for Yeezys to make their way onto Madden NFL 17, the premiere NFL video game franchise in the world. The cleats are set to release sometime in the future so a tandem day and date release in the game would be awesome. But thanks to social media, we got our answer and it’s not what you might expect. Because Taylor Swift…

Here’s our original tweet asking Peter Moore, one of the heads of EA (and he played a huge role in the launch of the Sega Dreamcast so he’s cool).

Hey @petermooreEA, any chance we'll get the adidas Yeezy cleats updated into Madden this year?

— KicksOnFire.com (@kicksonfire) September 12, 2016

The first reply came from Andrew Johnson, community manager at EA Sports.

@kicksonfire @petermooreEA Hey KicksOnFire. Thanks for the suggestions. We love the passion for the kicks!

— Andrew Johnson (@EASPORTS_AJ) September 13, 2016

Not bad, at least they’re aware there’s a passion to get the Yeezys “in the game” (and who’s to say adidas and EA haven’t already been in discussions?). But then Moore dropped the hammer and it’s actually pretty great, regardless of whether he’s serious or if it’s tongue-in-cheek.

@EASPORTS_AJ @kicksonfire Not until he apologizes to @taylorswift13 …

— Peter Moore (@petermooreEA) September 13, 2016

And there you have it, Moore is on Team Swift (if you need a refresher as to why, here’s a timeline). I’m guessing this is all in good fun and hopefully the cleats will not be excluded from this narrative and will be in the game at some point in the future. If not, this is hilarious either way for me…

While every New York Knick fan is patiently waiting for a Knicks colorway to drop on the adidas D Rose 7, adidas will continue releasing other colorways that don’t really correlate with what Rose will be wearing on the court. Up next is this adidas D Rose 7 rocking a traditional Black and White makeup.

The D Rose 7 starts off with a Black base that takes care of the majority of the Primeknit upper. Breaking up the tonal look of the shoe are the hits of White placed on areas such as the Three Stripes branding on the toe, the Boost equipped sole unit, the branding on the tongue, and the stripe on the pull heel. Two-toned laces tie up the entire look together. Out now, pick up your very own pair today for $140.

I’ve yet to see them in person. They look good and the look like the feel good too. Great colorway if you’re looking for something kind of neutral. The D Rose 7 looks pretty dope.

Were you a fan of the adidas Yeezy 750 Cleat that was debuted last week by Von Miller in the NFL season opener? The lifestyle shoe turned football cleat has received mixed reviews much like the Yeezy Boost 750 did when it was first unveiled.

For those of you that actually like the Yeezy cleat, you’ll be happy to know that adidas has announced today that they plan on releasing the shoes to the public. The three stripes announced via their adidas Football IG account that the shoe is “coming soon” with no other release details available at the moment.

The adidas Yeezy 750 Cleat features a full nubuck upper in grey/off-white with a strap across the midfoot, and a Quickframe plate to make them suitable for the field. The expected retail price for the adidas Yeezy 750 Cleat is $300. Does anyone plan on buying a pair? Stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for updates.

If you buy these then that means you REALLY love Yeezys. $300 for a pair of football cleats (that you can only wear for football) is crazy.

mastermind Japan has been a frequent collaborative partner with Reebok, Vans, and adidas Originals over the past handful of years, and it isn’t too hard to see why with their premium black leather aesthetic matching the intimidating skull and crossbones logo for a fierce dose of subtle simplicity. While we’ve gotten word that the mastermind Japan adidas NMD XR1 is coming to retailers later this Fall 2016 season, that won’t be all that the Japanese lifestyle imprint will be cooking up with the three stripes.

Today we not only get a better look at the mastermind Japan adidas NMD featuring that protective cage overlay, skull and crossbones heavy logos, and a simple black Primeknit, but we also get a view of the upcomingadidas Tubular Instinct. The lifestyle model shines thanks to a new premium leather rendition in mastermind’s signature black colorway while a blown up white skull logo hits the heel so there’s no doubt as to who the collaborative partner is on this release. What do you think of mastermind Japan’s latest adidas Originals collaboration? Check out more detailed photos below and stay tuned for a release date in the near future.

It looks like adidas is still working on some new Knicks colorways for the D Rose 7 Boost after his team switch this off-season, as more basic colorways of the shoe continue to hit the market. Basic isn’t always boring, though, as you can see by this super clean look for the latest and greatest Derrick Rose signature model in black with white accents. Actually looking like a colorway that’s perfect for the Brooklyn Nets, we’re guessing a Knicks version will show up sometime before the 2016-17 season tips off for all Rose’s newest fans in New York. Until then, you can pick up this excellent D Rose 7 Boost now at select adidas Basketball retailers like Packer Shoes.

With black and black peach colorways on the way, the adidas Yeezy Boost 350 2.0 (v2) is introduced in yet another forthcoming finish, this time consisting of oxford tan.

Although flaunting a lighter hue compared to the original Oxford Tan adidas Yeezy 350 Boost from last year, the sneaker’s revamped upper construction bears a mixture of white and tan accents, alongside the distinctive “SPLY-350″ branding gracing the elongated side stripe.

An official release date for this pair has not been announced yet so stay tuned to KicksOnFire for more updates.

Also, the adidas Yeezy Boost 350 2.0 Beluga is making its debut next weekend.

If you’ve seen the yeezy boosts featured in YEEZY Season 4, then another variation of the model in a tonal finish is also coming. This colorway is pretty appealing as well. I like the colored boost.

After a cool grey-themed pair, the adidas EQT Support ADV is introduced in a new fall-appropriate colorway of olive cargo.

Boasting a mixed material construction of mesh, suede and synthetics — this refined take of the retro runner is also detailed with distinctive branding with the signature three stripes gracing its side panels in nylon, alongside a tonal TPU apparatus on the rear to reinforce its overall construction.

All adhered atop a white full-length rubber sole unit, you can purchase this model at select adidas retailers overseas first, while a stateside release is imminent.

After featuring a colorway inspired by his alma mater, James Harden’s adidas Crazylight Boost 2016 is revealed in yet another standout iteration, as this upcoming pair is nicknamed, “Ghost Pepper.”

Pairing one of the world’s hottest peppers with the game’s most creative on-court chef, this PE variation flaunts hot red across the majority of its jacquard upper, alongside black accents and pops of teal throughout the outsole, collar and distinctive ’13’ badge. All adhered atop a full-length boost cushioning in white, more hits of teal and black are utilized for the outsole.

Probably my favorite bball silhouettes from the brand so far. The recent colorways have been solid as well and this is another appealing option.

Dear EA Sports,

Nobody cares about cleats in Madden like they do the sneakers in 2K. Ok, that’s not totally true. People care enough about the cleats in Madden in so much that they are accurate to what the players are wearing on the field, right down to Earl Thomas’ Air Jordan exclusives. But the video game community that happens to intersect with the sneaker community does not by and large freak out over even the hottest of Jordan or Nike cleats in Madden like they do when something that’s hot fire pops up in 2K. That’s just the nature of the culture and you know, because we can’t wear those cleats outside of the field.

But that all changed this past week when adidas and Kanye West entered a whole new world and dove right into the. From Von Miller to DeAndre Hopkins, a bevy of adidas Football’s biggest names were all gifted adidas Yeezy cleats for NFL Opening Weekend. While Miller only wore his Yeezy 750 Cleats during warm-ups, it was Hopkins who made history when he scored the first touchdown in Yeezy 350 cleats. When was the last time the world made a big deal out of somebody scoring a touchdown in a specific type of cleat? Probably never.

All sports video game developers pride themselves in being the “most accurate.” From the the presentation of the sport whether it’s the commentary or the camera angles or the uniforms having the correct logos and patches to stadium sounds to that are unique to one team, it’s all part of the hard work and research that they put in to make sure that we are getting an authentic experience. So what better way for EA to show that they really are living up to their tagline “It’s In The Game” than by bringing the cleat that set the sports world buzzing into their game. And we know that EA Sports knows that people are watching…
