adidas introduces the new colorway options of the Response Hoverturf GF6100AM sneaker model, with two drops in total. The new releases reference the sportswear brand's archival design language for a retro inspiration. Specifically, the brand turns its attention to the 2000s era to adorn the trail sneakers.
The first of the two colorway blends Carbon and Core Black as the base foundation. It is then detailed with golden details as the contrasting element on the midsole section and inner lining. The second colorway is complete with core white and core black as the tonal foundation for a muted finish before it is further detailed with bright pops of color informed by 'Shock Yellow.' Both sneakers are focused on durability for performance and comfort for longevity.
