Sneakers that aren't for training but designed for lifestyle are often crafted in a clunkier, less attractive fashion, but the Italia Independent x adidas Originals Collection looks to make waves by incorporating unexpected materials into footwear. Separated into two capsule collections including "DENIM" and "CROC," the Italia Independent x adidas Originals Collection looks to reinvent how we think about shoes oriented more towards the sidewalk than the running track.
Incorporating awesome features from both brands, the Italia Independent x adidas Originals Collection is almost like a modern take on classic sneakers; the silhouette of an adidas shoe with the contemporary cool patterning Italia Independent. Set to release sometime in the coming weeks, the Italia Independent x adidas Originals Collection is sure to delight those looking for a fresh pair for fall.
