While we patiently wait for adidas to release a multicolor version of the adidas Ultra Boost, another Boost sneaker was just blessed with the multicolor treatment. Today we take a look at the adidas adiZero Prime Boost rockin’ the vibrant Primeknit motif.

The shoe starts off with a black base which is soon covered with a multicolor Primeknit construction particularly on the Three Stripes branding, toe, tongue and collar. A black heel counter, laces and eyestay helps balance things out a bit. A white Boost midsole assures you that this will be one of the most comfortable shoes you will put on. Although it’s not yet available in the states, you can get a pair internationally, (with a hefty price tag) at select international retailers.

Aesthetically, it looks amazing. I’m just curious to see if it’s as comfortable as the Ultra Boost or Pure Boost. If it is, I’m all on it.

A new colorway of the adidas D Lillard 2 has been unveiled and the release date is closer than you think. Covered in gold aesthetics, today we take a look at the adidas D Lillard 2 Fool?s Gold.

This latest version of the D Lillard in inspired by the story of fools who forged ahead during the California gold rush in an attempt to get rich quick.

The shoe comes in a gold foil upper while additional gold detailing can be found on the tongue and speckled midsole. Contrasting the bold look of the shoe is the dark grey placed on the heel, eyestay,  collar and tongue, while the ice green hits on the midsole, laces and heel branding round out the look of the shoe. Available April 1st for $105, let us know how many of you are planning to get a pair?

I’m always a fan of the footwear in this lineage. This pair is another exceptional offering that blends style and performance. The only downside is the steep price tag.

If the Highsnobiety branding wasn?t added on the insole and tongue this would look like a general release colorway. It?s decent colorway, but I expected more from a collaboration.

I’ve never really been a fan of the Campus 80s silhouette but the tonal grey upper and the materials used on this collaborative pair give the shoe a nice luxurious look. Solid collaboration from Highsnobiety.

New Yeezy alert! Kanye West was recently spotted wearing a brand new adidas Yeezy Boost model/sihouette. The image you see above shows Kanye wearing an all-black version of this new model in question. From the naked eye, it appears as if it’s a slightly altered versions of the 350 Boost. On the other hand it also appears to look very similar to the recently rumored adidas Yeezy Boost 550. Notable features on the shoe include the solid black upper and the semi-translucent sole. What model do you think these are? If you have any idea, sound off in the comments below.

Ever since Boost became adidas’ savior (well, that and Kanye and Pharrell), the question that has been on everyone’s mind is when the Boost unit would get a shot of color. Sure, the white has served the three stripes well for years now, but with so much attention being paid to the Ultra Boost, the clamor for change has grown exponentially. The answer? A black Boost unit on the what is being called the adidas Ultra Boost Triple Black. Problem solved. Now all we need is a firm release date.

The adidas Equipment imprint has recently been overshadowed by the progress made with the three stripe’s recent Boost cushion system and advancements in Primeknit design. That doesn’t mean that the retro running regime hasn’t been steadily releasing heat well over the past two years though, and adidas EQT continues to do so. This adidas EQT Running Cushion would be the perfect consolation prize for anyone who missed out on Pusha T’s black snakeskin collaboration, as this general release pairs an ominous synthetic python with soft touches of matching suede to coincide with a light grey ribbon branding and heel construction. What do you think of the look? Buy this pair today from retailers like Rock City Kicks.

Have you hopped on to the adidas NMD hype train yet? Have you not been able to get a pair yet? If so, adidas will soon give you another chance at picking up the most popular model of 2016 (thus far), as four new colorways of the adidas NMD R1 Primeknit Camo are set to release sooner than you expect.

This version of the adidas NMD is the best (and most expensive) version that adidas has to offer. The fact that the upper comes with Primeknit construction and the sole comes infused with Boost technology makes this version very highly coveted. The uppers come in tonal camo colorways to give the shoe a clean and distinct look. Two camo colorways released not too long ago and they managed to sell out instantly, expect the same outcome on all four of these pairs. Releasing April 9th for $170, all I can say is good luck in getting a pair. Looking to get one? Let us know which pair in the comments below.

I like the shoe, but I’m not very crazy about the camo colorways. I’d rather wait for more solid colored offerings to drop somewhere down the line.

It’s hard to believe that Derrick Rose already has 6 adidas signatures shoes under his belt. The fact that he’s been injured more often than not in the past several years have caused the casual fan to overlook Rose and his shoes. It looks as it Rose may have turned the corner this year though. While he may not be the MVP-type Rose we’re used too, being able to play an entire season without a significant injury is a victory within itself. With that being said, perhaps next year will be another year of improvement. If that is in fact the case, Rose will be doing it while wearing the adidas D Rose 7, his 7th adidas signature shoe.

The shoe above is shown in 2 tonal colorways. Both are contrasted by a white midsol. Notable features on the shoe include the Three Stripes branding on the toe. The full-length Boost midsole and what appears to be a Primeknit upper. Check out the first look at the shoe, let us know what you think and stay tuned for more information regarding Rose’s next signature shoe.

Author’s Take

It looks very different from what we’re used to seeing on the Rose signature line. It may be just me, but doesn’t it resemble the Nike LeBron 13 just a little bit? I’ll reserve my judgement until more pictures are leaked, but the fact that it comes with Boost and Primeknit means that it’s already off to a good start.
