Sneaker Appreciation Post | Spring 2016

1. Adidas NMD Tokyo

These are so pretty - they’re also the first shoe to feature colored boost. The NMD Tokyo/Triple Black is set to release in May, along with a few other new colorways. But others have already been released (Yellow Camo in February) and promptly sold out. However the Black/White is set to be restocked mid-March, and the Footlocker exclusive Adidas Originals NMD R1 will be releasing on March 17th. The price of these are still TBD, but so far NMDs have been retailing for about $160.

Adidas is having a serious moment!!!

2. Reebok Instapump Fury OG

Compared to NMDs, Instapumps are still a little under-the-radar. Their separated outsoles are pretty marmite (you either love it or hate it), but I happen to think they look so cool. At $150 for custom Instapumps on the Reebok website, and even less than $100 on eBay, they’re an affordable and more nodular alternative to the Adidas x Rick Owens Tech Runners.

3. Adidas Consortium & Rick Owens Tech Runners

I will probably/definitely never own a pair Adidas Consortium & Rick Owens runners, but a girl can dream. I’ve seen pairs from previous seasons that are currently on sale for about $400-600, and the current SS16 season runs around $800.

Pictured below is the tonal white pair from from SS16. (See article here.)
