White Mountaineering helped to design a unique adidas boot that utilizes much of the brand's soft and breathable sneaker features.
Dubbed the 'SeeULater,' the adidas boot consists of a black and white colorway and uses lightweight Primeknit fabric so that it can be worn more comfortably in the warmer months of the year. The soles of the hybrid sneakers make it especially functional as well, with thick grips that prevent slipping and fit into the grooves of nearly any surface.
Unlike with many other boots, the material near the ankle of the SeeULater allows the wearer to bend their leg freely, making the model more comfortable to wear without missing out on any protective qualities. Currently, the adidas boots are available for preorder, however it will be in stores come the fall.
