adidas Consortium x Sneakersnstuff
Swedish sneaker powerhouse Sneakersnstuff teamed up with adidas to create their Golf-inspired version of a highly-popular silhouette. The adidas Consortium x Sneakersnstuff ”Tee Time” release features an UltraBOOST, combining a timeless original with state-of-the-art functionality as a nod to the classy outdoor sport and sunny afternoons outside the house.
Since the old saying goes that you have to play the ball as it lies and the course as you find it, this release boasts a variety of features to keep you prepared for any situation on your travel through the green. The Sneakersnstuff UltraBOOST is constructed on a BOOSTTM outsole, guaranteeing the highest level of comfort for a more progressive look. The upper is made from a black and off-white adidas Primeknit mix, with an embroidered Sneakersnstuff logo on the heel strap, as well as on a woven label on the tongue. This release comes with a grass printed insole to give you that Golf course feeling no matter where you are.
With the accuracy of a long-distance shot when it comes to detailing, and the consistency of a zero-handicap, this release draws from the elegant recreational activity’s heritage. Blending performance and style effortlessly, the Sneakersnstuff ”Tee Time” UltraBOOST is destined to become a hole in one when it comes to style.

adidas Consortium – First Women’s Collection
Since the relaunch of adidas’ top tier Consortium line last year, there has been a natural demand for women’s product with comparable quality materials and detailing. To respond to these requests, adidas Originals has joined forces with two Scandinavian retailers, WOOD WOOD and Sneakersnstuff, to create the first capsule collection designed specifically for women within the Consortium range. 

ZX 700 x Sneakersnstuff
Swedish retailer Sneakersnstuff has given adidas’ ZX 700 a directional fashion twist. The SNS design team took inspiration from the exotic animal textures and luxurious materials that are often used in the construction of designer handbags.  The ZX 700 x Sneakersnstuff upper is a mix of black suede and animal embossed leather. The snakeskin pattern effect varies, making each pair of these head-turning sneakers unique. The team further pushed feminine detailing by focusing on the 3-Stripes on the medial side of the shoe. Instead of being stitched, the 3-Stripe detailing is pleated – a considered approach that adds to the sneaker’s feminine look.  The predominately black colorway is counteracted by off-white on the leather ghillie piece and outsole, and a luxe soft leather sockliner featuring the SNS logo. The logo is also debossed on one shoe’s heel tab, while the other shoe features a debossed Trefoil. 

Gazelle Vintage x WOOD WOOD
Danish clothing label and retailer WOOD WOOD revisits its relationship with adidas Originals for this Consortium collaboration. The brand has reworked the Gazelle Vintage, infusing the silhouette with a Scandinavian sensibility that draws additional inspiration from the Californian desert.  Bringing the quality of Consortium into focus, WOOD WOOD has taken away the overlay of the silhouette and worked with an all-leather con­struction on the upper that is super smooth. A handcrafted feel comes forth with hand-stitching on the 3-Stripes and heel tab and cotton laces. Raw edging around the collar makes for a sneaker that is both rustic and feminine.  More thoughtful detail is found throughout the sneaker design, including a cork sockliner featuring a screenprinted Trefoil under one foot and the WOOD WOOD logo screened onto the other. A fabric loop tag hangs off the heel with a unique swallowtail finish. Like all Consortium models, a 
signature fabric loop tag with eyelet wraps around the tongue. 

Basket Profi
adidas Originals reintroduced the Basket Profi earlier this year, and is giving the shoe a fashion look and feel as part of the women’s Consortium capsule collection.  From a distance, the shoe’s fluid shape and mostly off-white colorway present a minimal style, but closer inspection reveals a more nuanced design. The leather upper has been given a cracked treatment, and a contrast heel tab and lining of super soft suede is screenprinted with irregular polka dots. The sneaker’s serrated edge 3-Stripes detail is executed in premium nubuck for subtle contrast.  The Basket Profi’s honey colored outsole matches the original sneaker, and the fabric loop tag on the tongue defines the shoe as part of the Consortium collection. The loop is marked with an off-white Trefoil on the front, and the Consortium handshake logo in black on the back, further pushing the detail-oriented direction of this collection.
