Monochromatic Snakeskin Shoes

adidas' Pro Model Comes in Upscaled Materials and Solid Colorways

— October 21, 2015 — Fashion
These adidas Pro Model sneakers come in a luxurious snakeskin pattern -- usually reserved for higher-end sneaker models -- and two unique solid colors.

This is a revived edition of the adidas Pro Model high-top sneaker that was first introduced as far back as the late 1960s. This adidas Pro Model goes back to its origins in terms of silhouette, but boasts a unique new colorway and texture. Snakeskin material covers the entire adidas Pro sneaker, other than the three signature adidas stripes along each side of the shoe. Even the iconic toe shells have a minutely textured pattern embossed in the rubber. This revived adidas Pro Model comes in two monochromatic colorways: the deep, dark 'Oxford Blue' and a bright 'Tomato' shade of red.
Trend Themes
1. Luxurious Snakeskin Patterns - Capitalizing on high-end materials, brands can incorporate luxurious snakeskin patterns into their products for a premium and fashionable appeal.
2. Revival of Retro Silhouettes - Brands can tap into nostalgia by reviving classic sneaker silhouettes, like the adidas Pro Model, while giving them a modern twist to attract consumers.
3. Monochromatic Colorways - Designers can explore the use of one solid color in their products, like the 'Oxford Blue' and 'Tomato' shades in the adidas Pro Model, to create a sleek and minimalist aesthetic.
Industry Implications
1. Footwear - Footwear brands can experiment with using snakeskin patterns and monochromatic colorways to create trendy and high-end shoes.
2. Fashion/apparel - Fashion and apparel brands can adopt the trend of incorporating snakeskin patterns and monochromatic colorways into their clothing and accessories to offer luxurious and stylish options.
3. Sportswear - Sportswear brands can mix retro and modern elements by reviving classic silhouettes like the adidas Pro Model and adding unique textures and colorways to appeal to sports enthusiasts.
