The sneakers further blur the line between high-end fashion footwear and streetwear with their sci-fi-like profile that boasts mesh with TPU 3-Strips in the upper. The midsole, however, steal the spotlight with bulbous Adidas Bounce units, while the outsole has a translucent bubble rubber profile. The Adidas x AVAVAV Moonrubber Megaride sneakers will make their international debut starting May 22 for $350 with shoppers expected to find stock online, at flagship stores and additional select retailers. The sneakers build on the Adidas Megaride shoes form the Millennium era and modernize it with their bulbous base.
