adidas Originals works in collaboration with OAMC on a new footwear design, highlighting the structures of both a sneaker and a boot with the 'Type 0-3.' This follows the two forces' previous work together, following the Type 0-1 and the Type 0-2.
The latest effort turns its attention to the functions of mountaineering, delivering sensibilities with a sleek upper made from leather in a high-top structure sitting on top of a trail outsole for rugged elements. The sneaker boot also boasts a visible lacing system and arrives in three colorway options in total. The tonal selection spotlights a neutral palette with either black, gray, or white. The Type 0-3 sneaker boot is now available for purchase online at adidas and OAMC.
