adidas ‘Yin & Yang’ TS Lightnin

words_Nick DePaulaHaving steered clear of widespread collaborations with their latest hoops sneaker aimed at the game’s most speedy players, after a multi-season partnership with UNDR CRWN beforehand, adidas Basketball recently gave in and worked with artist Rahn Johnson on a Yin & Yang concept executed atop the TS Lightning Creator. Available this summer exclusively in Asia, Johnsonwas inspired by the principles of Yin & Yang found in traditional Chinese culture.Beginning with the dualities of season in mind, graphic illustrations of Rain (Yin) and Sun (Yang) can be found along the medial sides of the shoes, wrapping over from the lateral collar. Other touches along the shoe include the use of the grey snakeskin patent leather, which pays tribute to the the Chinese Zodiac, as well as the translucent green outsole, which is inspired by the Chinese “Imperial Gem” Jade.Thanks to Rahn’s Personal Blog for the images! close

CLOT x Adidas TS Creator & Commande

Recently, we have shown you this highly-detailed Adidas and CLOT collaboration effort on two occasions. Although the majority of you expressed your discontent with this creation, some of you inquired about its release information. If you were one of the latter, we have been informed by Daily Drop that both sneakers are available on CLOT’s online store.It is very rare to see two sneakers in one pack contrast as much as these two styles. The TS Creator seems to possess a plethora of textures and colors on the base, to say the least. Specifically, this black, gold and red sneaker features animal and laser print designs throughout the upper. As another unique feature, this shoe also possesses a rare, three-bar design on the side panels. On the contrary, the Commander simply features a predominately white base with multiple grey accents throughout the upper. As stated earlier, you can purchase both pair at CLOT’s online store.Read the rest of CLOT x Adidas TS Creator & Commander© George Kiel III for NiceKicks.com, 2009. |Permalink |3 comments |Add todel.icio.usPost tags: Adidas, Adidas TS Commander, Adidas TS Creator close

Adidas TS Cut Creator for Derrick R

For the reigning Rookie of the Year, life is good. As a budding star, Rose led the down-and-out Chicago Bulls to the Eastern playoffs, taking the then-reigning champions Boston Celtics to 7 games before falling. And for 2009-2010, Rose will be seen on court in these Adidas TS Cut Creators.Chauncey Billups will likely play in the same sneaks in a Denver colorway, which may limit the exclusivity of these for Rose, but it can’t be considered an insult to wear the same pair as one of the best veteran PGs in the game. Working with Chicago’s colors, these Adidas use a black upper, accented by a red midsole and white outsole. The sole also features Foremotion technology, and a these should breathe well, thanks to the large vent on the outside of the ankles. Last year Rose battled it out against then-rookie sensation OJ Mayo in our Kicks on Court ROY Candidate face-off in the TS Creator, and it looks like he’ll be seen in the newest Adidas release this year.Adidas may not have too many basketball fans, but these are a solid sneaker for hoopers. Are these the sneaker that can change it all for the 3-Stripes? Make sure to be on the lookout for Rose’s TS’s close
