Exotic Scaly Shoes

The Adidas Snakeskin Pack Revamps Classic Footwear Collections

— February 5, 2011 — Fashion
The Adidas Snake Pack is a revamped collection of classic footwear. As part of Spring and Summer 2011 collection, these shoes follow along with the exotic skins and animal theme that we're seeing from the brand.

Specifically in the Adidas Snakeskin Pack are the Nizza, Samba and Forum Mid shoes which have been given wicked snakeskin makeovers in bold tropical colors. These three shoes will definitely spice up your collection of sportswear.

Implications - While there was once a heavy embrace put upon the use of leathers, rising eco consciousness has made faux go a long way. These such products appear instantly more luxurious -- despite their use of faux materials -- and are a refreshing change from leather goods that gives a happy medium between environmentally friendly and aesthetically pleasing.
Trend Themes
1. Faux Exotic Materials - Embracing faux exotic materials offers a environmentally friendly and aesthetically pleasing alternative to traditional leather goods.
2. Animal-themed Fashion - The popularity of animal-themed fashion continues to grow, providing opportunities for brands to incorporate exotic designs and patterns into their collections.
3. Bold Colorful Makeovers - Giving classic footwear bold and colorful makeovers, like the snakeskin pattern in tropical colors, creates unique and eye-catching products for fashion enthusiasts.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion Retail - Fashion retailers can capitalize on the trend of using faux exotic materials to offer eco-friendly and luxurious footwear options.
2. Sports and Athletics - The sports and athletics industry can leverage the popularity of animal-themed fashion to create unique sportswear designs and attract trendy consumers.
3. Luxury Goods - Luxury brands can tap into the demand for bold and colorful makeovers in classic footwear, offering exclusive products that stand out in the market.
