In an effort to bring consumers more variance in its 'Climacool 1' model, the company created a series of metallic adidas sneakers dubbed 'Precious Metals.'
The updated versions are available in two different colorways, one of which is gold and black, while the other is silver and black. Each of the metallic adidas sneakers is rather simplistic in the way it executes its eye-catching color scheme -- with the uppers made to be almost entirely monochromatic. The black that accents the Climacool 1s can be found on the tongue, where it helps to draw attention to adidas' branding.
Meanwhile, the brand stays true to the model's original composite, constructing the uppers from a sleek and breathable mesh and including a ventilated sock liner inside.
