The adidas Crazy Explosive Primeknit was welcomed with mixed reaction when it was unveiled earlier this year as the latest adidas basketball sneaker. Some people liked it, many people hated it! If you were feeling the look of the shoe, check out this all-Red version of the The adidas Crazy Explosive Primeknit.

The high-top basketball sneaker comes with a Primeknit upper sitting on top of full-length Boost cushioning, which is kind of hard to see since it’s concealed with an added layer, sort of like the Yeezy Boost 350. Tonal branding appears on the side panels as well as on the tongue. Are you a fan of the shoe? If so, expect adidas to release these sometime next month.

I’m one of the few people that actually liked the shoe. It has a new flavor to it. It’s a look coming out of adidas that we’re not used to, that’ definitely a good thing!

Not too bad. Women’s release or not, I think I’d be down to wear these. Just not in all-White.

It’s hard to believe that this is an NMD, but I definitely like the look. The colors and theme used on the shoe are really cool. The only thing I’m not cool with is the $240 retail tag.

The adidas Originals Stan Smith gets the Primeknit treatment in an all-Pink motif from head to toe. If rocking pink sneakers is your thing, this is definitely a good choice for the Summer season.

The Stan Smith gets a modern feel by utilizing Priemknit construction on the upper. A Pink hue takes care of the entire upper which also consists of the Pink laces and Pink inner mesh lining. The Three Stripes on the side panels remain but they appear in a very subtle fashion. Down low you will find the traditional Stan Smith rubber sole unit equipped with adidas branding on the rear region. Out now at select adidas retailers, pick up your very own pair of the adidas Originals Stan Smith Primeknit for $110.

I don’t consider myself a fan of the traditional Stan Smith, but I mess with the Primeknt version. Perhaps not in this colorway, but I mess with the shoe for sure.

adidas continues to release and unveil different rendition of the Ultra Boost. This time around, adidas removes the traditional Primeknit upper and favor of a more warm construction, while switching up the look of the cage. Let’s take a closer look.

What you see above is an adidas Ultra Boost dressed in a wool Primeknit upper. This new type of construction makes the shoe even more appealing during the winter season. In addition to the wool construction, the shoe also comes equipped with translucent TPU cages. As of right now, the two colorway in display come in Black with a smoky Black cage, and a Light Tan with Olive equipped with a cloudy cage. A tonal heel counter and White Boost midsole complete the look of the shoe. You like what you see? Stay tuned to find out when these bad boys get a release date.

Author’s Take

I really like the winter look on these. I’m all for wool uppers and the translucent cage is a nice look. I’m looking forward to these.

Stella McCartney is one of the handful of high fashion collaborations that adidas has employed over the past decade. The daughter of The Beatles legend, she’s made a name for herself by designing clothes for Madonna’s world tours and through a joint venture with the trefoil brand dating back to 2004. It shouldn’t come as a surprise then, that she’s been able to rework some of adidas’ most popular silhouettes like this Stella McCartney x adidas Ultra Boost returning in the popular Triple White aesthetic. The Primeknit upper gets a lower profile as well as a new cage overlay made of transparent mesh and a synthetic tape-like textile for a simple, refined aesthetic. What do you think of the latest Triple White adidas Ultra Boost? Check out more detailed photos below and be on the lookout for this pair to arrive at retailers later this summer.

The adidas Tubular Doom owes a lot to the adidas Y-3 line from the Qasa-like neoprene midfoot section to the sock-like high arching upper. The Primeknit offering has taken the 1993 Tubular edition into the lifestyle realm with the suede overlay reflecting the 90s running creation. Today we get a look at a brand new greyscale colorway that utilizes a number of different grey tonal selections for a unique and refined look perfect for anyone that missed out on the first rendition of the adidas Yeezy 750 Boost. What do you think of this adidas Tubular creation? Check out more photos below and know that international spots like 43einhalb have this pair in stock today.

With the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil impending (August 5), this latest variation of the classic adidas Crazy 8 pays tribute to the international sporting event with an Olympic Rings colorway.

As suggested, the basketball sneaker takes cues from the primary symbol of the Olympic Games, which is composed of five interlocking rings, colored blue, yellow, black, green, and red on a white base. Essentially mimicking that same design and implemented on the model’s composition, accents of black are also utilized throughout to complement the overall design.

Stay tuned to KicksOnFire for an official release date, although, it should be very soon.

Author’s Take

I’m biased towards the theme and this silhouette is a classic too, so I’m a fan. If you’re a die-hard fan of both, you should consider purchasing since it probably won’t re-release anytime soon.

A few months ago, we were treated to an unboxing video that featured three adidas kicks that all arrived at the KoF offices within hours of each from various sources. This past Friday, we got an unexpected sequel in the form of another trio of three stripes boxes, including the adidas NMD, adidas Superstar Primeknit Multicolor and the Lucas Premiere ADV. Sounds like a great time to do another KoF Live video and of course, me being me, I just had to unbox the NMD last to mess with the audience.

To stay up to date with all things Kicks On Fire Live, be sure to like our Facebook page and be notified when we’re broadcasting again. You’ll probably want to be tuned this week as a lot of things that I don’t think I can mention yet will be taking place from (redacted).

With a bred-inspired colorway and a wool variation on the way, the popular adidas NMD is unveiled in yet another finish that will be making its debut in the coming months ahead.

This time flaunting a cleaner makeup, white covers the sneaker’s sleek mesh composition and signature full-length boost midsole unit. Pronouncing the pristine makeup are blue-colored EVA inserts on the heel, while accents of black are prominent on the heel pull tabs and outsole.

Stay tuned to KicksOnFire for its availability, as it’s suggested to be offered in large quantities, unlike the more limited primeknit iterations.

I’m biased towards the silhouette and this colorway is clean. It should garner some attention. You can’t go wrong with a pair.

Kanye West and Pharrell’s influence on fashion and pop-culture is immeasurable at this point. There’s no way to calculate how the tandem made adidas the most wanted sneaker brand right now, and as Kanye makes waves with his YEEZY line, Pharrell is working magic directly within adidas Originals. The collaboration we’ve all been waiting for is finally here, as Pharrell’s suave touch lands on the adidas NMD R1 Primeknit with a new “cage” that features thick rope laces and HUMAN RACE embedded into the knit uppers. The Pharrell x adidas NMD R1 Primeknit releases at adidas Consortium retailers including all seven of BAIT’s chapter stores this Saturday, July 23rd with an MSRP of $220, so check out a detailed look courtesy of BAIT below.

The colors used on this pair of NMDs along with the fact that Pharrell created them means that they’ll sell out instantly. Good luck getting your hands on these.

Most of your sneakers are made in China, Vietnam, or another Asian country by young, inexperienced employees. Soon enough, that may all chance. adidas announces that it will open its first “Speedfactory” on U.S. soil in 2017; the plant is heavily automated and expects to employ around 160 people-mostly engineers. Each Speedfactory expects to produce one million pairs of the shoes a year, which is still less than 1% of the brand’s annual production, but adidas envisions a network of these automated facilities as it will rely much less on labor and reduces time-to-market by months. More details can be found on Oregon Live.
