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
