When people look back at adidas comeback these adidas boost past few years, the flashpoint is definitely Kanye, but the kickoff was the adidas ZX Flux. When these first dropped in early 2014, people were actually scrambling to get a pair. Since then, adidas has transitioned from the Prism to Reflective to mi ZX Flux to XENO and countless collabs. You might argue that the saturation point has been reached with these, but then something new comes along that changes our perception and we re back to loving them again.
But before you go back to the news section and throw up at the multitude of news about the adidas Yeezy Boost 350 Oxford Tan , here are picks for the sneakers the blogs (including Kicks On Fire) would not shut up adidas zx flux about in 2015.We re always looking for the next Roshe. What that means is the Nike Sportswear (or adidas Originals and Jordan Brand because it was the ZX Flux and Jordan Future respectively in 2014) silhouette that appeals to the casual and hardcore sneaker adidas originals ultra boost men audience equally.
Collaborations are a win for everybody because two different brands/companies are able to work together to get their name out there and most of the time the quality of the release is better than their inline work. So I expect to see more collaborations than ever in 2016 so everybody can stay winning together.What s better than two of the best rappers/entertainers in the music industry making music? I ll tell you what, two of the best rappers/entertainers making sneakers! Kanye West won the Footwear News adidas nmd r1 Shoe Of The Year award in 2015 thanks to his adidas Yeezy Boosts and it s hard to pick someone more deserving.
Drake may have only officially released the OVO 10s with Jordan Brand in 2015 (Editor s Note: Anybody notice that one of the complaints often lobbed at Kanye and adidas is that they only sell because they re limited? Well, how many OVO 10s did Drake and Jordan put out?) but if Jordan Brand paid any attention to any blog or social media then they know that they re sitting on a gold mine with Drizzy.
The Yeezy Boost 750 is something of an enigma to me. I can t look at it and see a sneaker really. In fact I ve always said that while at Nike, Kanye had sneakers and now with Adidas he has footwear. It s a shoe that grew on me once I accepted that fact. The suede upper and gray colorway adidas gazelle make it a perfect complement to so many outfits.
There has already been a lot of speculation as to what brand won 2015. Our own Juan Carrillo finds that Jordan Brand is still the reigning champ . Just last week Dan Freebairn of Kick Posters released his research of most liked brands on Instagram and as it turns out, adidas ran away with that title. Personally, from strictly an aesthetic perspective, adidas has won the last 2 years. It just so happens they also won our site s official award for Brand of the Year .
