Mismatched High-Tops

The Adidas Hide and Seek from Stan Smith Break the Mold

I like shoes, especially sneakers, but I find them to be a little too matchy sometimes. But the Adidas Hide and Seek Stan Smith kicks are here, and they make me want to get a pair and never take them off.

The Hide and Seek shoes feature an upper that is attached with a zipper, and which can be easily removed to expose a different color underneath--meaning that you can be wearing a pair of the exact same shoe, in a different color, while only buying one pair of shoes. Yeah, and now you know why I am pumped for the Adidas Hide and Seek.
