The Adidas SLVR Brogue Buckle is a hybrid between a classy oxford shoe and a sporty running shoe. Although some may think that this blending of two separate worlds is odd, there has been a slow movement towards couture sportswear, which makes this footwear design a natural step in the evolution of fashion for 2012. It is a perfect balance between casual and dressy, allowing it to complement almost all outfits.
The Adidas SLVR Brogue Buckle sports a formal silhouette, yet its waffle sole and buckle detail cushions it to make it perhaps one of the most comfortable dress shoes on the market. This quirky shoe is available in three colorways: black with a hint of lime, royal blue and minimalist white. They are set to be released sometime next year.
