Adidas Tubular Returns In Yeezy Inspiration 620x413

We understand that the Nike Air Yeezy 2 Red October had a profound impact in the sneaker world, but even over a year after Kanye left the Swoosh to earn his stripes, we’re still seeing overt references to his final creation. He was quoted as saying that there would be no all-red variety of any of his adidas Yeezy Boost creations and went out of his way to inform everybody that he was indeed off that. So, if the Yeezy Boost won’t do it, there’s always this adidas Tubular X.; the silhouette showcases the brand’s ability to push the Tubular further into the lifestyle category and this high arching creation will arrive at the beginning of 2016. There’s no denying the familiarity here, as this adidas Tubular toys with the mesh upper for a bolstered look and is covered in a vibrant red for good measure. Are you a fan of the color choice or is the all-red lifestyle look played out at this point? Are you surprised that adidas isn’t shy about copying Yeezys? Let us know in the comments below.
