As the sole sneaker in the adidas Yeezy line that doesn’t feature Boost embedded in the midsole, the Adidas Yeezy 500 Women instead calls upon the Trefoil Brand’s classic adiprene technology to provide both support and cushioning. An extremely minimal amount of branding then rounds off the striking sneaker, ensuring that Ye’s trademark design ethos remains uncluttered.
A swath of upcoming Adidas Yeezy 500 Men releases are scheduled to hit shelves over the next few months, and one of the pairs that’s set to release is this new “Salt” take on the Yeezy 500. Calling upon the same tonal aesthetic as past Adidas Yeezy 500 Sale releases, the “Salt” utilizes a light grey hue that covers the upper’s mix of leather and suede, while an ever-so-slight contrast is provided by the grey suede overlays and eyelets. The retro-styled “Feet You Wear” outsole with adiprene cushioning returns as well to complete the look.
The chunky shoe trend isn’t losing any weight this Summer and Kanye’s offering into that category, the Adidas Yeezy 500 Cheap, is ready to drop in its third and arguably most coveted colorway. The “Utility Black” serves up the monotone all-black look for the first time since the Yeezy Boost 750 of two winters ago, although the shade is more of a dark grey than a true black tone.
