Korean Tea-Themed Sneaker Colorways

adidas Originals Launches a New FRESH MINT TEA Colorway

— March 28, 2022 — Lifestyle
adidas Originals introduces a brand new tonal iteration of the ZX8000 sneaker model entitled the FRESH MINT TEA colorway. The brand celebrates the tonal palette of the traditional Korean Bakha-Cha mint tea with lively and refreshing hues of green throughout the entire silhouette.

The upper is made from mesh at the base foundation in green and it is followed by synthetic suede overlaying on top. Additionally, there are touches of contrast that arrive at the shoe found at the warm grey toe box section along with the Torsion system at the midsole, continuing through to the corrugated textural rubber outsole foundation. Rounding out the shoe are the textile lining, lace enclosure, and recipe for the drink that inspired the colorway found on the interior.
