"adidas have been in on the action and one of their latest silhouettes to undergo the modern revival has been the
adidas shoes white with black stripes. Dropping in a handful of colourways, the Cloud White/Blue Rush colourway was the most popular of the bunch. Now the model is looking to receive even more love with an upcoming collaboration with Danish women's sneaker retailer, Naked.
The latest, a Consortium release courtesy of Shanghai’s DOE, sees its DNA melded with the
adidas ultraboost 19 panda for a build that straddles centuries. Equipped with the UB’s 21st century tech, and tinged with the ‘Pacer’s 80s styling via the forefoot wrap, the latest release seamlessly blends the two eras. Meanwhile, co-branding on the sheath adds the final collaborative flourish.
General release sneakers have to occasionally fight harder to be noticed than their limited edition peers. This can mean they have details that wouldn’t otherwise appear, so sneakerheads with open eyes and minds will be rewarded with these unique pairs. For example, this
nike air force 1 high top mens may just look like a white and black edition, but a closer look reveals much more.
This is something that’s not usually found on
90sretroinspired.com. Neither is the big pull tab on the back, which displays enough Nike branding that the heel panel it’s attached to is left blank. Similarly, the tongue label isn’t the usual rectangular badge, but rather a long of woven tape with additional branding. And completing the colourway is a subtle injection of Tiffany Blue-esque Swooshes on the throat and forefoot."
