adidas Originals have brought in a number of high-profile collaborators, especially for their ObyO capsules, but that in no way implies that Three Stripes is enduring a creative drought. Quite the opposite, in fact, as adidas seems to be inspired by all the quality teamwork, and continues to add new silhouettes to the lineup surprisingly often. One such new design is the adidas Originals Adi Rise Mid, an ankle-high lifestyle sneaker with nods to both the classic chukka boot and adidas’ own Forum basketball sneaker. This first colorway is perfect for cold weather in black leather with mauve accents, plus a Safari Print-like pattern on the rear quarter and ankle collar. Check out more shots after the jump and grab these from an adidas Originals retailer like CitySole.
A safari excursion on the moon is something that won’t happen for very long, but the Nike Lunar Safari, on the other hand, is a confirmed ‘go’ later this year. Of course, you can’t celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the shoe by leaving out THE shoe, so here’s a look at one upcoming Air Safari release that was spotted at the Nike Sportswear preview during Tuesday morning’s event in New York City; this Air Safari uses an outdoors-y beige tone on the safari print and combines it with the Livestrong combo of black nike free 3.0 v5 and yellow on the upper. The funkiest feature of this Safari is the camouflage-like detailing on the outsole that was first seen on a black/pink sample of the Safari we saw not long ago. We’ve got additional angles of this upcoming release below the jump so take a look and stick with Sneaker News for more Nike Safari updates and developments.
