Adidas Originals Stan Smith Primeknit (More Images)

image image image image image


Adidas gave you a first look at the Stan Smith Primeknit, now we finally see a detailed set of photos that do these bad boys justice. Keeping the same classic colorway of a mostly white upper and white sole the only splash of color comes in green accents but hey no complaining, keeping it classic is they way to be. I’m digging this new take on this classic silhouette, replacing leather with a full knit mesh.. beautiful. Adidas is getting more and more bold and adventurous and I honestly dig it.

Adidas Originals Superstar – “OG”

image image image image image


My Adidas, this track dates back to a time before even I can remember, Run DMC ran the streets and it his rhymes were listened to world round, at this time Adidas were the creme of the crop and everyone was dying to have them. Adidas decided to switch it up and bring back those coveted kicks in these Original Superstar OGs, that honestly live up to the OG title. It’s not even worth my time typing up a rundown on the details and it sure wouldn’t be able to begin to describe the beauty. So do yourself a favor and take a gander at those babies up top, and make sure to stare.


No word as to if these release or even when, that won’t be for awhile unless it’s sitting at store now waiting for the special moment the world may never know.

While some of you sneakerheads are still trying to cop the perfect Summer kicks, adidas Originals is getting us ready for the Fall and Winter seasons ahead. The adidas Originals Hamburg silhouette has been made over to sport the perfect colorway, featuring cleat-inspired detailing and a gum outsole on both renditions. The first of the two renditions works an all Blue upper with Orange accents, while the second of the two is dressed in White and receives Red accents. Adidas kept things traditional with this release, using pig-skin and patent leather to help construct the sneaker. These kicks will be available for pre-order on June 1st for those who are interested.

adidas Originals Stan Smith Primeknit

With the year almost halfway through we’ve seen a surge in adidas Originals Stan Smith releases and it seems that the best is yet to come. The sneaker looks to be joining the long line of meshed out uppers as we see the classic OG colorway done up in Primeknit. The woven base fits the form of the silhouette surprisingly well to deliver a very interesting take on a classic look. Right now they are at select Asian adidas Originals retailers like Invincible and will hopefully be landing in US shops shortly.

A First Look at the adidas Originals Stan Smith Primeknit


Since it's re-release at the start of the year, we've seen a number of different looks for the adidas Originals Stan Smith, including some luxurious varieties and even a few customs courtesy of Pharrell Williams, and now adidas Originals is giving the classic silhouette a new twist with the release of this Primeknit version. Instead of the traditional leather uppers, this new model features a fully knit upper in the traditional white and green. In a nice mix of old and new, this shoe retains the original off-white rubber sole for a timeless look. No word on a general release date yet but you can pick these up now at Taiwan's Invincible.

Noted Cash Money Millionaire Doug Collins displays his hip-hop bona fides before Pacers-Heat Game 5 (Video)


Yep, that's ESPN analyst and Doug Collins slamming Jalen Rose's alley-oop pass on the reference to "What Happened to That Boy," the now-12-year-old Birdman x Clipse banger. Let us never forget that Collins has spent chunks of the late '80s, mid-'90s, early 2000s and early 2010s in NBA locker rooms, or that he was very comfortable with calling Nick Young "Swaggy" during their shared time with the Philadelphia 76ers.


In answer to the question, though, Miami Heat reserve center Chris Andersen, a.k.a. "The Birdman," is inactive for Wednesday's Game 5 between the Heat and Indiana Pacers, as he continues to nurse a bruised thigh.


Now that I'm thinking about it, let us also never forget that "What Happened to That Boy" soundtracked one of the best basketball sneaker commercials Adidas ever produced. Take us there, Tracy McGrady:



Brrrrr.
