adidas and Parley continue to work in collaboration to deliver sustainable solutions to their sportswear and sneaker designs. The latest from the duo includes new iterations of the newly reconstructed ZX8000 sneaker and the UltraBOOST 5.0 DNA sneaker model.
Notably, the duo also create a recycled tennis court that is found in Australia's Great Barrier Reef. The new collection features a broad range of new colorways that are designed with inspiration from the aesthetics of a retro beach. It nods specifically to the 70s for a nostalgic feel, giving the shoes a sun-bleached visual effect. The shoes also have hues of red, purple, and blue that are aged for a washed-out look. This is accompanied by accessories and apparel.
