Boost technology serves as the three stripe’s main breadwinner these days, as any shoe outfitted with the unique cushioning technology seems to sell incredibly well. This adidas Pure Boost ZG owes a lot to the unique construction of the upper too, as a woven Primeknit base is branded with unique three stripe logos on the medial side that are semi-camouflaged by the interwoven strands of Crystal White and Vivid Red. The slip-on aesthetic returns here, as does a unique heel support system that mimics Boost’s pattern for added unity throughout.

The “Oddity” series by adidas Originals is usually characterized by a somewhat random assortment of bright colors across the uppers of each silhouette featured in the collection. For example, see the Oddity pack from 2005 or the EQT Cushion from 2014. The Oddity concept is back again for 2016, but this time the sneakers go luxe with the EQT Running Support ’93 and EQT Racing ’93 not in an assortment of colors, but textures. As you can see, the EQT Support for men and the EQT Racing for women are both featured in white and creamy pink color palettes with various textures including suede, perforated leather, python, and crackled leather creating a new twist on the Oddity series.

Following tonal iterations, a special edition Coca-Cola adidas Climacool 1 is now making its way towards select retailers nationwide.

Similar to its limited edition counterpart for the 2002 FIFA World Cup with a predominantly red upper, the golden accents for this 2016 version are only applied on the inner lining and tongue tab, while the original design displayed the detail on its three-stripe motif as well.

Essentially defined by its breathable mesh upper which allows air circulation throughout its upper, innersole and outsole, the low-top runner is detailed with the iconic carbonated soft drink company’s logo on the heel tab and insoles. Additionally, the branded insoles showcase a soccer ball motif which further correlates this updated model as a homage to its original 2002 release.

Finished off with matching laces and black accents on the outsole, you can purchase this standout pair at select adidas stockists now while supplies last.

I wasn’t aware of this limited edition model back then, basically because I wasn’t into runners before. This offering is solid and really should garner a lot of attention.

First making its appearance during the presentation of Yeezy Season 3 this past February 2015 on NYFW, another image depicting this revamped adidas Yeezy 350 Boost is provided, as the model may possibly receive a release date soon.

Staying true to its original design ethos with a breathable primeknit upper and comfortable boost-enhanced sole unit, the notable difference on this pair consists of two stripes implemented across its sides, with the orange-colored version showcasing the words “SPLY 350.”

A part of me feels this is a subtle jab towards Nike with a “flat” Swoosh. Other than that, I like the overall colorway and it’ll obviously get the attention it deserves.

Following a recent red/black colorway, the adidas Originals Tubular X is introduced in another finish for the season, this time in a more subdued tone of soft grey.

The model’s main base is comprised of breathable primeknit to ensure sufficient ventilation throughout the model’s entire profile. Other notable details include matching laces, pull tabs and branding situated at the side panels, as well as on the tongue tabs.

In addition to the PDX Carpet colorway, another rendition of the adidas D Lillard 2 is presented, this time dubbed “Oakland.”

Essentially paying tribute to Damian Lillard?s hometown MLB baseball club — the Oakland Athletics — the sneaker is clearly shaded in the team’s signature colors.

Bright green covers the entire upper composition alongside piping on the midsole, while subtle yellow accents are intertwined along the component, while it’s more prominent on the inner lateral portion, branding on the tongue and heel.

All resting atop a clean white rubber sole unit, you can expect to find this model to arrive at select adidas accounts in the coming months ahead.

I’m a fan of the silhouette’s design. I’m not an A’s fan but this colorway is pretty appealing. It’s another solid offering and fans should be excited for the release.

Truth be told, the only thing that prevents me from mistaking this pair of kicks we’re featuring today for your typical adidas Pure Boost sneakers is the silver Busenitz name stitched onto the tongue and lateral side. And considering the high praise we’ve heaped upon the adidas Pure Boost around the KoF office since they first launched a few years back, I’d say that’s a compliment to the adidas Busenitz Pure Boost Grey sample that fell into our laps a few days ago.

Since we’re being honest here (although when are we not, right?), I would be lying if I professed to being an expert in skate shoe culture and having great knowledge of the impact Dennis Busenitz has had in the sport. But what I do know is that Boost technology has a played a huge role in the turnaround of the three stripes and one of my personal favorites to come out of that is the adidas Pure Boost. So to bring those two silhouettes together means that the Busenitz is raising the bar for adidas Skateboarding.

After being delivered in the most nondescript of ways, the latest colorway of the Busenitz Pure Boost is a mixture of Busenitz’s signature kicks, which is inspired by the classic adidas Copa Mundial soccer boot, and the aforementioned Pure Boost. It’s such a confluence of influences and tech that really anybody can wear these as a casual pair and know that it’s one of the best out there for comfort but it will be up to the skate community to determine if it’s something that is worth the price tag ($130) considering that the original Busenitz can be had for half that at many retailers.

This isn’t the first time a sneaker has grabbed inspiration from the famous print found on the carpet of the Portland International Airport, but this is definitely the first time the inspiration is used on the adidas D Lillard 2.

The adidas D Lillard 2 PDX Carpet has a more subtle look compared to other past models rocking the PDX Carpet look. The inspiration is found on the minty green translucent outsole, which appears to be the same color found on the PDX carpet. As far as the rest of the shoe goes, the upper comes in a Soft Grey and White colorway, with hits of red found on the branding and eyelets. Would you have liked to see more color used to better suit the inspiration, or is the shoe fine as is? Rumored to release sometime in August, let us know what you think in the comments below.

I’m sure people are going to say these are Yeezy inspired. I won’t but I also don’t see it as much of a PDX Carpet inspiration either.

This following version of the Stan Smith may come in a tonal offering, but it definitely has an exotic look and feel to them. With features that give the shoe a “subtle standout” feel, today we get a good look at the adidas Originals Stan Smith Silver Python.

Two features help make the Stan Smith stand out. One, it comes with an upper covered in a python skin texture to give the shoe its exotic look. Two, the python skin comes in a reflective silver motif that lights up when hit by light. A white sole unit and black hits on the heel tab and tongue branding complete the look of the shoe. If you’re looking for a classic model with a modern look, this is definitely a good option. Available internationally, expect these to arrive stateside in the near future.

It’s solid. I’m very picky with my Stan Smiths, but I think I prefer more of a subtle look on this model.

The adidas Stan Smith may be one of the most classic and traditional sneakers ever, but this latest makeover for the iconic tennis shoe is anything but. The silhouette gets two bold upgrades this spring. First, a python skin texture for the popular reptilian look. Second, that snakeskin texture gets done in from front to back in a reflective silver material. These definitely aren’t your grandpa’s Stan Smiths. You can find pairs arriving now at overseas adidas Originals retailers, and soon here in the US.

As the days go by, more and more new colorways of the brand new adidas Tubular Nova Primeknit model begin to surface. Today we came across a brand new colorway of the shoe and this pair appears to already be available. Let’s get a close and detailed look at the adidas Tubular Nova Primeknit Black / Grey.

Opting to take the tonal route, the shoe rocks a Primeknit upper coming in Black and Grey. The Primeknit construction is accompanied by the neoprene and suede paneling placed on the cage and heel counter. The two-toned look of the upper is contrasted by placing it on top of the all-white Tubular sole unit. Available now, pick up your very own pair at select retailers for $140.

Clean and simple colorway. I’m not big on the Tubular sole unit, which is one of the main reasons why it’s stopping me from paying retail for these.
