Freshnessmag.com is one of my favorite sites, and I am super stoked to tell y’all they teamed with adidas to produce a truly dope shoe, the [adidas Freshness Equation kick](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kith-and-adidas-1).

This bad boy is completely convertible, and you can wear it as either a [high top or a low top](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adidas-unveils-climacool), and the pattern is inspired by [dazzle camouflage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brain-dead-x-adidas-forest-hills). The details are still sparse, but these babies are going to be must haves, so get ready for your own Freshness Equation shoes.
