adidas shoes for men

[Joyce Bart]

Cause who doesn t love a adidas rom little friendly sneaker competition to make the other step their game up?This year brought us more collaborations than I think we ve ever seen when it comes to sneakers. Not only did we have  the usual brands dishing out collaborations left and right like New Balance, Asics, PUMA, Vans, and Saucony, but we also had adidas, Nike and even Jordan Brand joining in on the fun. Some of the most noteworthy collabs that dropped in 2015 include the Just Don x Air Jordan 2 (btw there s another colorway expected to release in January), the Pigalle x Nike LeBron 12 Elite, the Supreme x Air Jordan 5s, and the PSNY x Air Jordan 12.

I m not a fan of Kanye s sneakers at all but I understand the power that he has with his shoes and adidas tobacco the attention that they command. Every time a 350 or 750 arrived or was getting ready to arrive at retailers it was all that you read about no matter what sneaker blog you turned to. LOTS of people wanted a pair and were willing to (and actually did) pay adidas stan smith black ridiculous prices to get their hands on them.Drake may have only officially released the OVO 10s with Jordan Brand in 2015 (Editor s Note: Anybody notice that one of the complaints often lobbed at Kanye and adidas is that they only sell because they re limited?

Our own Juan Carrillo finds that Jordan Brand is still the reigning champ . Just last week Dan Freebairn of  Kick Posters released his research of  most liked brands on Instagram and as it turns out, adidas ran away with that title. Personally, from strictly an aesthetic adidas adilette perspective, adidas has won the last 2 years. It just so happens they also won our site s official award for Brand of the Year .Indeed we ve seen Nike and Adidas all over the college football and basketball landscape. Our pro leagues are also saturated with those brands, but in 2015, the biggest stars wore Under Armour on the biggest stages. And they won.

So instead of your typical ranking of the sneakers in the form of a Top 10 list, here s a totally unscientific examination of just how bummed out we were with each drop and subsequent L with adidas Yeezys this year as #KoFBestOf2016 continues.The adidas Yeezy Boost 350 Pirate Black dropped in 2015 to much praise and made a return earlier this year got plenty of people hyped  some even erroneously consider it superior to the iconic Turtle Dove colorway  but it left others bummed that it wasn t an altered shoe or a new colorway altogether.Earlier this year, Kanye got involved in some NFL level of pettiness when he expressed his displeasure with Kylie Jenner signing an endorsement deal with adidas originals stan smith PUMA.

Reaction for this slate of drops has been mixed, but those who are fans are no doubt repping hard for these, thanks to the bright colors and limitless ways you can lace them up thanks to the cage system that we ve seen since on other NMDs.Spoiler: we keep it simple for the top 2 NMDs. First up is this ultra rare friends and family Pitch Black colorway that features the much-desired black Boost cushioning and a raffle that had everybody on their phones for several hours hoping to [img]http://www.spcjcr.co.uk/images/shoes/adidas originals stan smith-708tpu.jpg[/img] be among the lucky ones to score a pair.
