It's the perfect pairing of geek and sporty!

They are currently available in black, gold,blue and lilac colorways, but a sneak peek at next season's collection reveals they have pink/orange, citrus and all sorts of other exciting shades (if you've seen the candy-coloured kicks you'll get the idea).

**Implications** - With so many available options for colors, there is no way not to find a watch amongst these for everyone! Adidas has once again created a product that makes nerdy, cool and cool even cooler!
