Officially introduced yesterday, more detailed official images of the new adidas Alpha Bounce in its inaugural colorway of Core Black/Iron Metallic/Clear Grey is featured once again.

The sneaker is defined by a new FORGEDMESH upper, which is essentially one layer of material with no seams and reinforced with a ribbed pattern in specific areas to provide more support and expansion. The distinctive pattern across the upper is offset against a white/translucent BOUNCE midsole unit, which offers responsive cushioning and comfort in various activities or running.

Retailing for $100, you can purchase a pair now at select adidas retailers, as well as through its online shop.

Not surprisingly, men’s sizes are now sold out, although women’s and kid’s sizing are still offered, with prices listed at $100 and $80 respectively.

Author’s Take

I?m pretty biased towards runners and it?s no surprise that I like this silhouette. Overall, the design is pretty sleek and appealing. I?m not keen on the pattern much, but the colorway is solid. This should get a lot of attention nonetheless.

The Primeknit construction of the adidas Superstar just got more interesting than ever with this new edition in a rainbow of colors. Yes indeed, the Superstar Primeknit goes with the forever-popular “multicolor” treatment on this latest edition, with a white-based textile upper interwoven with an array of hues for a heathered rainbow effect. Meanwhile, the silhouette is kept classic with black accents for the three stripes and heel.

With Father’s Day approaching, (Sunday, June 19th), Dan Gamache of Mache Custom Kicks has teamed up with San Francisco-based technology company, Chronicled, to create one-of-a-kind sneakers for Kanye West in celebration of fatherhood.

Utilizing the popular adidas Ultra Boost, the bespoke pair has been rendered in a tonal military green finish with contrasting bright orange ?KANYE WEST? detailing in a gothic font. Additionally, the distinctive cage lacing system has been reconfigured with one component to emit a more deconstructed look.

In addition, Kanye’s first-born, North, will also receive a custom pair, featuring the classic Superstar, as it sports a white/beige/pink colorway with an all-over compass print in gold.

Both kicks are equipped with a Chronicled tag that ensures its authenticity, which includes the shoe?s model name, size, date of manufacture, photos and more.

Nice set and I’m just biased towards the runner. I would consider purchasing that colorway without the custom detailing, if it ever releases.

We have already seen the adidas Originals Superstar get hit with a Primeknit upper, but we’ve never seen anything like this before.

The iconic silhouette that was made popular by Run DMC back in the day will once again be outfitted with a Primeknit upper but this time in multicolor colorway. This Superstar has been given a white-based Primeknit upper with an array of colors all over the breathable material. Other details include black accents on the three stripes branding, heel and on the tongue branding, as well as a white rubber shell toe and midsole.

Stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for a stateside release date.

I feel like the colors aren’t strong enough on this pair of Superstars and there’s still to much white. Adidas can do a much better job in creating a “multicolor” Primeknit sneaker.

All-Black sneakers. Will they ever go out of style? Probably not. if you’re looking to re-up on an all-Black pair, take a good look at the upcoming adidas Tubular Nova Primeknit.

The Primeknit construction takes care of the upper, while the adidas Tubular sole unit takes care of the lower half of the shoe. Both parts of the shoe come in Black, as does the heel strap and lacing system. Not much else to say about the shoe being that it comes in all Black. Said to be releasing on July 29th, let us know if you are looking to pick up a pair.

Author’s Take

I like the Primeknit upper, but it’s not appreciated as much when it comes in all-Black. Aside from that, I’m not crazy about the model either, but what are you going to do, right?

Take a look at this brand new rendition of the adidas Originals Stan Smith. Focusing on making the shoe more comfortable then ever before, let’s get a closer look at the adidas Originals Stan Smith Leather Sock.

The shoe is constructed out of a one-piece leather upper that not only gives the shoe a sleeker aesthetic, but it also makes the shoe much more comfortable. The texture of the leather on the upper is said to feel as if you’re putting your foot inside a fresh pair of cotton socks, hence the name of the shoe. Making the shoe even more comfortable is the tongue that comes laser-attached to the rest of the shoe to help prevent seams and stitching getting in the way of hindering the comfort level of the shoe. The White upper is paired up with the Silver accents on the tongue and heel, all while sitting on top of an off-White midsole. Available internationally, we will let you know once these bad boys arrive stateside.

Author’s Take

The shoe’s new features sound amazing. The Stan Smith is definitely not my favorite model, but I’d be more than willing to try on a pair once these arrive stateside.

Just by getting a quick glance at this women’s adidas Originals Superstar 80s Snakeskin, I can already tell that there’s going to be a handful of guys picking up a pair regardless of who adidas thinks these sneakers should be for. Covered in a nubuck upper, the shoe gets a unique look by way of the snakeskin detailing placed all over the base.

Coming in a Black and White motif, the shoe’s upper is constructed out of nubuck material that’s covered in small slits to mimic the look of snakeskin. Accompanying the nubuck construction are the leather overlays seen by way of the Black Three Stripes branding and heel tab. The traditional solid white shell toe and midsole complete the look of the shoe. No release date yet, but we’re pretty sure these bad boys will be dropping sooner that later.

I’m really diggin’ the look. If they have my size, I’m going after a pair. I really don’t care if they’re “womens” shoes.

It took a while, but it appears as if the Tubular Nova is finally taking part in its first ever collaboration. Teaming up with Slam Jam, let’s get a first look at the Slam Jam x adidas Originals Tubular Nova.

The shoe opts to come in tonal fashion as a White and Grey color combination take care of the majority of the upper made out of neoprene, perforated mesh, smooth suede and croc-embossed leather. The same off-White hue is found on the Tubular sole down low. The shoe’s most notable feature lies in the Slam Jam branding placed on the heel wrap of the shoe. Available internationally, we will put you on notice if/when these ever arrive stateside.

I’m diggin’ the simplicity of the shoe. I’m sure that anybody who is a fan of Slam Jam, is definitely loving the branding on the heel.

All of the attention is currently focused in on the adidas NMD line, and it’s not too hard to see why with the shoe’s unique midsole, awesome Primeknit upper, and comfortable Boost cushioning system. But that doesn’t mean that adidas Originals is getting complacent either, as their latest adidas Tubular Nova Primeknit looks to be a huge success in the making. The pair is currently waiting in the wings until later this summer, as the woven upper rests atop that unique Tubular outsole unit. A suede overlay is inspired by the original early 90s Tubular running series while a heel strap mimics one more readily found in the adidas Y-3 lineup. What do you think of this Triple Black look? Check out more photos below and we’ll keep you updated on a stateside arrival right here on Sneaker News.

Decent pair of NMDs but not I would be willing to buy. I’ll pass on wait for a colorway that really blows my mind.

The adidas Ultra Boost took the world by storm thanks to the Primeknit and Boost combination that allowed for the performance runner to crossover to the lifestyle category with relative ease. Then Solebox and Hypebeast transformed the silhouette by ditching the protective cage overlay and three stripe branding with the adidas Ultra Boost Uncaged. The upper looked rather similar to that found on the adidas NMD series, and now the trefoil brand is expanding the model for a general release set to hit global retailers later this summer. This clean Grey/Clear Grey colorway takes a tonal approach to rival some early Yeezy 350 Boost releases as a clean metallic gold branding hits the heel to work well with the subtle white full-length Boost cushioning. Continue onward for a better look at the latest adidas Ultra Boost offering and be sure to let us know if you’re a fan of the look by taking your thoughts to the comments section.

The adidas Ultra Boost Uncaged is set to debut in a new grey colorway soon, as more images of the forthcoming pair is provided.

Aside from its traditional counterpart, this particular iteration is defined by the absence of a lacing cage unit across its mid-foot. Boasting a cleaner profile, while also allowing the foot more freedom, the model is constructed of primeknit in a mixture of grey and black tones.

Reinforced with a TPU overlay on the heel, the sneaker is also detailed with a sock-like collar as it all rests atop a clean white midsole unit and black outsole. Other notable elements include respective branding on the rear and matching laces.

Select adidas retailers overseas have this pair listed for availability on June 28th for a price tag of $225.

Aside from the tech steel/blue colorway, the adidas Originals Stan Smith Primeknit is also offered in vapour green for one of its newest iterations this Spring/Summer 2016.

Maintaining its iconic design overall, this particular rendition of the sneaker is defined by its breathable knitted composition which offers superb breathability throughout, a lightweight feel and sufficient comfort.
