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.

For those of you who didn’t know, adidas athlete Damian Lillard is one of the top five NBA rappers dead or alive. It’s true. Just check his social media. During his free time this Summer, Lillard is polishing up his bars by performing in front of live audiences. While performing off the court, he goes by the name Dame D.O.L.L.A., and he was recently spotted doing his thing at Portland’s Crystal Ballroom. How is this sneaker-related? He was doing so while wearing the unreleased adidas D Lillard 2 Tennis Ball. We’re pretty sure the all-Volt sneaker was the highlight of his outfit. No word yet on whether this flashy colorway will release, keep it locked to find out.

I’ve been hearing a lot of good stuff about the adidas Crazylight Boost Low 2016. Many people are even labeling the shoe as the best basketball shoe adidas has ever created! Already available, let’s get a closer look at the adidas Crazylight Boost Low 2016 Solar Red.

The shoe is constructed in low-top fashion. One of the main reasons the shoe is getting rave reviews is because is comes with the beloved Boost technology from heel to toe, something that has never been done on an adidas basketball shoe. The upper consists of  molded TPU elements placed along the midsole and eyestay to help secure the midfoot. Below you will find a reengineered herringbone-style traction that will help you with quick changes in your movements. The upper is made out of a a woven graphic Jacquard print done in a Crimson colorway. Out now, let us know if you plan on scooping up a pair.

It’s definitely a shoe I’m interested in getting a better look at. It may not be the best looking shoe, but the Boost tech is really intriguing to me. Great work by adidas!

The adidas ZX Flux ADV Virtue is the latest and possible greatest rendition of the adidas ZX Flux line. That’s a pretty bold statement to say, but give me a second to explain why!

Not only does the adidas ZX Flux ADV Virtue have a very modern and sleek aesthetic, but it also comes dressed in a Primeknit upper that comes in a nice and bold pattern. The geometric motif gives the shoe a dope two-toned look. The Black base is complimented nicely by the hits of White and Grey placed all over the shoe. Additional Black can be seen on the entire sole, heel counter, sock-lining, laces and branding on the heel. Ladies, this model was made exclusively for you, let us know what you think.

Never been much of a ZX Flux fan, but if these women’s shoes come in my size, I’d be more than willing to try on a pair.

In addition to the golden Rod Laver, this variation of the iconic adidas Originals Stan Smith, which goes by the 999, is also updated with gold finishes this summer.

Noted as a tribute to the upcoming 2016 Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the low-top silhouette evokes the first-places medals given in the award ceremonies, as shimmering gold is seen on the embossed tongue label, branding across its quarter panels and textured heel tab. Perfectly complemented with a pristine white leather composition, the signature three stripe motif on its sides are configured in perforations.

All adhered atop a matching full-length rubber sole unit, you can purchase this pair at elect adidas retailers nationwide now for a price tag of $110.

The latest fashion trend hitting the streets is the “dad hat”. Many different brands and companies are getting in on the trend and releasing their own dad hats. The latest brand to do so is none other than adidas. They put their own spin on the dad hat and design them by using the faces of some of the best superstars of the NBA.

Players such as LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant appear on the front of the hat, whole the team logo can be seen on the side. None of the players on the hats are adidas athletes, but that’s okay since adidas is still the official apparel supplier for the NBA. Priced at $22, these hats are selling out pretty quick. If you’re looking to get a pair, make sure you do so quick because I don’t see these lasting long.
