HYPEBEAST'S Top 10 Posts of the Week

Marking the end of the week is HYPEBEAST's latest Top 10 roundup. This week saw a focus on footwear, with the classic and attainable adidas Stan Smiths piquing interest with an editorial on how it became this season's it-shoe. However, on the other spectrum of footwear are the highly coveted and rare styles, which made New York's Flight Club what it is today. However, the resell market mainstay has just released a list of shoes it won't be taking in anymore, possibly marking a shift in the market. We also saw some behind-the-scenes photos of the hotly anticipated Suicide Squad, with an exclusive look at Jared Leto's Joker, and his Jokermobile. But lastly and ironically, everyone seemed to be interested in the fact that A$AP Rocky's recent Instagram escapades lost him 100,000 followers. Scroll through to see what you might have missed this week.

The adidas Originals Stan Smith Shows Off Its Pride for Equal Rights !

Adidas is set to introduce the adidas Originals Stan Smith “Pride” Pack. The shoe pays homage to celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Gay Pride events. Let’s take a closer look at twhat this pack has to offer.

The adidas Originals Stan Smith “Pride” Pack will feature a white upper that has rainbow paint drips coming out of its perforated sidewalls. Inside the shoe you will find multicolored insoles while the laces appear to have some sore of gradient effect on them. The way this shoe came about is because back in 1965 gay rights activists gathered outside Independence Hall in Philadelphia for the first ever LGBT picket. That very same year adidas names their prized tennis shoe, the “Robert Haillet”, which later on went on to be the Stan Smith. Being that both events happened in 1965, adidas felt it was only right to use the adidas Originals Stan Smith as the canvas for this collaboration. No release date yet, but it has been rumored that it will drop sometime in June.

Author’s Take

Dope idea and concept behind the shoe. The actual shoe looks pretty good as well, with just enough colored hits to differentiate from any other Stan Smith release.

I personally wouldn’t wear them, but they do look like they would make a good summer shoe. They’re fun, comfortable and full of life. They’re okay in my book, just not my style.

Author’s Take

The all-white look is such a beautiful sight to see, but the precautionary measures one must go through when wearing them makes me not want to wear them at all. I have one pair of all whites, I plan keeping it that way for quite some time.
