Animal Skin-Accessorized Sandals

The mi adilette Slides from Adidas Feature Exotic Skins and Furs

Now that the weather is warming up, consumers are becoming more inclined to stock up their wardrobes with apparel and footwear that's fit for the beach, and the new mi adilette Slides from adidas are perfect for the occasion.

Like the German sportswear giant's other slip-on sandals, the mi adilette slides have a relatively simplistic build that ensures comfort and durability. Although the new versions don't skimp out on any of this, they have a few more touches to give them a bit of a luxurious edge. Due to this, the sandals manage to maintain an athletic aesthetic while dabbling in the realm of high fashion, with components like pony hair, snakeskin, leather, and suede integrated into the designs.
