adidas Consortium Packer NMD Runner PK

Packer Shoes was around before the modern footwear brands, major sports leagues or any kind of sneaker culture. A family business founded in Yonkers, New York, in 1907, it has been retailing sporting apparel ever since. It has a long and proud history, has witnessed much change and has a unique awareness of sporting heritage.
For the latest adidas Consortium collaboration, Packer has created an NMD Runner in a colorway that pays tribute to this long legacy and its vast knowledge in the  field. Bold and simple, vibrant and fresh, but also steeped in history, the colors conjure the image of athletic apparel worn in years bygone.
With the NMD, adidas has firmly established a philosophy that emphasizes the close relationship between heritage design references and progressive product innovation. Launched as part of the Originals range, it is equipped with a boost sole, flexible upper - Primeknit in this case - and an elasticated ribbed collar for sock-like comfort.
It is almost as if the sneaker’s colorist has time-travelled forward from the mid-1980s. A light blue/indigo upper with navy and turquoise detailing plus  ashes of red combine on a shoe reminiscent of the iconic track suits from that era. Inspired by a vintage piece from the adidas vault, Packer reminds us of the rush of color so omnipresent in sportswear 30 years ago.
The adidas Consortium x Packer NMD Runner PK takes established colors and presents them in a way that looks completely 2016. It is a bold statement in an often-monochrome marketplace.

adidas Consortium X End. Clothing NMD Chukka

In recent years, the North East of England has become one of the more unlikely fashion hotspots, led by the rise of Newcastle based retailer, END. Clothing. Since 2005 it has grown from a small, humble ‘cool-guy’ store to a three-story emporium on one of the city’s major thoroughfares as well as an online authority on men’s clothing and footwear.
END.’s reputation is built upon quality and attention to detail. This is evident not just in the clothing and footwear selection but also in meticulously curated look books, an ultra-sleek retail environment, as wall as a general devotion to a strong, contemporary design aesthetic.
For its adidas Consortium collaboration, END. has chosen the NMD Chukka. The execution and materials take inspiration from the barren terrain of Saharan Africa, the 3.5 million square miles of undulating sand dunes which sprawl across the continent.
The NMD’s deep green color, as well as its geometric, honeycombed upper are references to cacti, one of the few plants capable of growing and thriving in such environments.
