Rugged Winter-Ready Footwear

adidas Originals Readies for Winter with the HYPERTURF Gaiter

— November 19, 2022 — Fashion
adidas Originals introduces its latest silhouette that is designed specifically for the Winter season with the HYPERTURF Gaiter. It is designed with a rugged design language and readies for the outdoors whilst retaining its retro running properties.

It covers the upper with heavy-duty CORDURA fabric materials to protect the wearer's feet and has speed lacing that is weaved into the upper along with the webbed fabric for a tactical design language. Notably, it is able to grow into a bootie silhouette due to the FIDLOCK material. Using magnetic snaps on the back quarter section and a speed lace hoop lock, it comes together to have the gaiter rest just above the sneaker to help keep wearers warm and debris out.
