Alongside the men’s triple white offering, the women’s variation of the adidas NMD XR1 will also receive a white-out pair this summer.

Composed of a two-tone microrib knit across its composition, this release develops the NMD blueprint with a vintage white upper, while the signature TPU heel patch is switched out for premium suede. Rounded out with a matching tooling to cap off the shoe?s futuristic look, heel pull tabs and branded tongue labels finish off the sneaker’s sleek design.

Expect to find this women’s pair at select adidas retailers nationwide starting Thursday, August 18th.

Author’s Take

I’m biased towards the silhouette and this colorway. I prefer the construction on the men’s pair more, but this is also a solid option for the ladies this season.

Following a black/blue release this past July, the adidas NMD City Sock is now introduced in a traditional black/white finish.

Almost similar to the aforementioned pair, the sneaker is simply comprised of a full Primeknit upper in tonal black, alongside matching EVA inserts atop its clean white boost midsole unit. Further detailed with heel pull tabs and ribbed detailed on the sock-like collar, the model is topped off with a black rubber outsole.

Retailing for $170, you can purchase this classic colored pair at select adidas retailers starting later this Fall 2016.

The adidas Yeezy Boost 350 will be returning in the Fall of 2016 with a new look with what’s currently being known as the Yeezy Boost 350 2.0 or V2.

Already spotted on Kanye West himself as well as having leaked a few month ago, the debut colorway is expected to be this Steel Grey/Beluga-Solar Red pair that we see above. This new version of the Yeezy Boost 350 features a new striped Primeknit upper along with a new Solar Red stripe that attracts more attention to the shoe. There is also a possibility that the sneakers will be housed in a new box as you can see it in the picture above.

No exact release information is known yet for the adidas Yeezy Boost 350 2.0 but rumors indicate that it could release some time in September. Stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for updates.

Not really feeling the new stripe on the upper. I’m not a fan of the original 350s and I don’t expect on picking up this pair either.

This adidas Superstar 80s Gets Covered In A Scale Textured Upper

ADIDAS SUPERSTAR 1 ADIDAS SUPERSTAR 2 ADIDAS SUPERSTAR 3

The classic and OG white/black colorway of the adidas Originals Superstar has gotten a makeover that lots of people will be diggin’.

This is actually the Superstar 80s, which looks pretty much identical to the original Superstar. This pair of shell toes features a white leather upper that has been hit with a scale snake-like texture for a premium look. Black leather detailing has then been added to provide some contrast on the branding stripes, heel tab, and inner liner. White then covers the laces, tongue, rubber shell toe, and the sole unit.

Look for this textured adidas Superstar 80s at select adidas retailers now.

Author’s Take

The scaled textured leather is a good look for the shoe. It makes the silhouette stand out from the original smooth leather pairs.

Release Date: adidas NMD XR1 Triple White

ADIDAS NMD XR1 1 ADIDAS NMD XR1 2

Later this month we’ll be seeing the debut of the adidas NMD XR1 in a few different colorways. One of the pairs that will most likely be the most sought after is this Triple White rendition that you see above.

The NMD XR1 comes equipped with a flat-knit upper construction that is developed with an all-over glitch pattern, strengthened by tonal overlays, including a premium heel patch in plush leather. Finishing details include full color-blocked tooling, tonal branding details, and a new lace caging system.

Look for the Triple White adidas NMD XR1 to release on August 18, 2016.


Author’s Take

There’s other colorways of the NMD XR1 that I’ve liked like the Olive pair but I’m just not a fan of this Triple White version. These are an easy pass for me.

The adidas KB8 III Is Releasing Soon

It looks like adidas is reaching into their archives to pull out the forgotten model from Kobe Bryant’s signature line, the KB8 III. Kobe’s third signature shoe from 1999 often gets lost in the mix of the more well-known KB8 and KB8 II and the polarizing designs of the The Kobe 1 and 2, but adidas hopes to remind everyone of Kobe’s last Feet You Wear model with an upcoming retro release. Today we get a quick preview of the KB 8 III retro in its original home and away Lakers colorways, which should both be a welcome sight for any fan of Kobe’s early days with adidas. No release date has been announced yet, so stay tuned to Sneaker News for further details on the return of Kobe’s third adidas signature model.

adidas NMD City Sock Releasing In A Simple Black And White


New NMD alert. This upcoming adidas NMD City Sock won’t be featured in the 19 adidas NMD releases on August 18th, but we can expect this Primeknit and Boost lifestyle gem to arrive in the near future.

The adidas NMD series has been one of the strongest three stripe offerings outside of the Ultra Boost and Yeezy imprint and it isn’t too hard to see why. The lightweight Primeknit and mesh uppers have provided breathable and comfortable rides while a unique minimalist aesthetic has proven to be as modern a design as any out there. Today’s preview of the NMD City Sock showcases the silhouette at its best thanks to a simple black Primeknit woven upper. The shoe isn’t complete without a full-lenght Boost midsole cushioning system, as black accents and German ‘three stripe’ branding add an international twist.

We’ll keep you updated on this NMD City Sock’s release date as soon as we get more information, but in the meantime check out more detailed photos below.

adidas Originals Unveils The NMD XR1 Triple White


Another day, another adidas NMD Triple White announced to release on August 18th. adidas Originals has kept busy all summer, releasing heat in the patented Primeknit and Boost combination as part of their NMD takeover. While 19 NMD colorways will release on that same day, the adidas NMD XR1 Triple White is the standout that everyone will want, but few will be able to grab.

The adidas NMD XR1 takes the minimalist Primeknit lifestyle gem and adds a protective cage overlay on the side panel for extra lockdown support. The Boost midsole is actually slimmed down for a sleek ride when compared to the original adidas NMD offering while a Primeknit slip-on upper is as comfortable an adidas release as we’ve ever seen.

Additional trefoil branding lands on the leather tongue tag while Japanese katakana spells out ‘The three stripes’ on the heel in a contrasting black. Are you excited about the upcoming NMD Triple White XR1 release? Stay tuned for more release date updates right here on Sneaker News.

Already on Day 3 of 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the international sporting event continues to be celebrated as this latest variation of the adidas Ultra Boost will be arriving soon.

I?m just biased towards this runner and especially in this colorway. I?m looking forward to the release and I?ll probably purchase the silver and bronze colorways too.

adidas Ultra Boost Light Onix


What is it about the adidas Ultra Boost and shades of grey? The three stripe’s most popular running model has appeared in a number of new tonal options and while there’s not quite 50 shades, releases like the “Reflective Grey” and a women’s exclusive with a flashy hint of pink have all further pushed the Ultra Boost into lifestyle territory.

Today’s adidas Ultra Boost Light Onix offering utilizes a subtle light grey upper with a Primeknit gradient on the toebox consisting of an off-white accent. A black heel cage matches the Continental rubberized outsole while that smooth Light Onix hue lands on the protective three stripe branded overlay. There’s still no word yet on a release date but expect this Ultra Boost release to arrive in the near future.

adidas Yeezy Boost 350 v2 Releasing In September


You won’t have to wait much longer for the next Yeezy Boost 350 release. Kanye’s Primeknit and Boost gem will return to retailers in early September in a head-turning array of Steel Grey, Beluga, and an aggressive Solar Red stripe on the side. We’ve yet to pin down an exact date, but this does mean that the earlier predicted mid-August release was pushed back a few weeks.

We’ve seen plenty of looks at the latest Yeezy 350 Boost V2, as it’s the first of its kind to feature the new striped edition throughout the Primeknit upper. Today we get a better preview of the updated packaging, which is rumored to be a friends-and-family only issue as it differs vastly from the subtle brown box utilized in past adidas Yeezy releases.

Stay tuned for a release date regarding this upcoming Yeezy Boost 350 right here on Sneaker News and be sure to check out our exclusive video preview of the Yeezy 350 Boost “White”.

Following its release in crystal green, the popular adidas Ultra Boost Uncaged is now revealed in a neutral colorway for its latest variation this season.

Flaunting a mixture of tech earth and crystal white across its primeknit composition, the model’s understated color palette is further pronounced with a vapour grey-colored heel counter, while it’s all topped off by a crisp white boost midsole unit and black continental outsole.

Topped off with matching laces and ribbed detailing on the sock-like collar, you can find this pair at select adidas retailers overseas now, although, a stateside release is imminent.
