Star Wars x adidas Originals Skyline Mid Coruscant

cover

There’s a looming shadow over Coruscant. The stranglehold of Darth Vader threatens the city of Coruscant.  That’s actually the theme of the newest adidas x Star Wars collaboration.  This is the Skyline Mid Coruscant.  The features the skyline backdrop of Coruscant with the hand of Darth Vader threatening to choke the life out of the city. These are available right now at The Good Will Out.  What do you think of the adidas Originals Skyline Coruscant? The rest of the pics right after the break.

Nike Air Royal Mid “Baroque”

Cover

My first experience, with the Air Royal Mid, was last year with the patent leather version.  I was contemplating wearing them in my upcoming wedding.  The Royal’s, this year, have been changed a little bit.  Instead of having a perforated swoosh, they chose to use compression molding; creating a raised swoosh. They also swapped out the leather lining for a softer wool lining.  Besides the technical jargon; this shoe is pre aged leather shoe; with all the crack and creases of aged leather. It looks like a shoe that has been handed down from generation to generation.  This is just a great looking shoe.  It’s available now at Canadian boutique Livestock for $155, which is so worth it for these shoes. What do you think of the redesigned Air Royal Mid?  The rest of the pics after the break.

adidas Originals Fortitude “Wood/Aerolime”

brown

I recently posted pics of the “Fortitude” sneakerboot in dark onix and Extra Butter has the same shoes in brown; well they call the colorway wood and aerolime.  I wouldn’t actually describe the color as wood because it’s a little more dark than most wood.  The color is a great color for an outdoor style shoe and the laces look great with the brown and grey base.  What do you think of the new color? The rest of the pics after the break.

adidas Originals Decade B-Balls NBA Colors

magic close up

If you are like me then you love your shoes, that support your favorite team, without team logos on the shoes. It’s not that I don’t love the team, but my tastes are just more simple.  Which why these shoes peaked my interests. Three new shoes has popped up on Crooked Tongues with NBA team colors but no team logos on the shoes.  The adidas Originals Decade B-Balls come in three colorways; Magic blue/black/white, Portland Maroon/Grey/Black and Knicks Orange/Blue/White. I love the Magic colorway and the Knick shoe can also be worn if you’re a fan of the Florida Gators.  What do you think of the Decade B-Balls?  Check out the pic after the break.

Diesel x adidas Originals Collection

diesel x adidas 5

This is a surprising collaboration. Only surprising because Diesel makes shoes.  They don’t make great shoes, so it kind of makes sense.  No matter what the reason, this is one awesome collab.  Diesel chose to collab on 5 different shoe; 2 mid Forums, 2 Stan Smiths and a zx700. The shoes are being offered at Diesel Flagship stores worldwide.  Diesel has added their signature rivets and is using some pretty bold color choices. My favorite so far is the zx700 in black and green and the Forum with the red strap. I am kind of surprised there was no denim covered sneakers; considering Diesel is known for denim.  What do you think of the Diesel x adidas collaboration?  More detailed pics after the break.

adidas Originals Fortitude “Dark Onix”

Fortitude 3
Winter weather can be hard on your kicks and your soul. The main problem is you want to wear your favorite sneaks but you don’t want the crappy weather to ruin your shoes.  Well, why not try a sneaker boot?  It’s the latest craze sweeping the nation. All the durability of boots and the comfort of sneakers. The adidas Originals Fortitude is one of those awesome combos. The Fortitude comes in dark onix, which is great for harsh weather because it’s hard to stain; and look how thick the outer sole, it’s like running shoe. Nice Kicks has these for sale right now for $75 and these are a must have for this season. What do you think of the Fortitude? More detailed pics after the break.

adidas Originals adi-Rise

Adi 6

More and more adidas originals are popping up these days.  I think they are trying to show Nike that adidas is still a major player.  When they drop shoes like the adi-Rise, I can definitely put my support behind them now.  The colorway is Navy/Gold in a mid rise shoe, with some patent leather.  These are available right now for around $80 @ Nick Kicks. What do you think of the new adi-Rise?  More detailed pics after the break.
