My pair came in and other than one glue stain this pair is immaculate. It’s not really a sneaker, kind of a casual dress shoe. In hand you can see and feel the heel cut and shape is a very substantial piece of shoe.
Everything about these is
to me. Kind of glad I had to wait most of the year for a pair that really delivers the craftsmanship I was hoping for when I saw them introduced. The packaging is excellent and fits the design aesthetic of Kith’s fall hoodies and fleeces.
Yeah they’ll be more work to maintain but the patina wear of a dress shoe kind of makes sense here. I don’t think the crepe sole is a detracting factor. Pretty sure they’ll look great with some miles on them. Not sure where this one will land for me but definitely top 10 and best adidas drop of the year IMO.
