CLOT adidas QI Flow Releases in Black and White Colorways

— December 16, 2025 — Fashion
CLOT adidas QI Flow releases in black and white colorways as part of a collaborative footwear project between CLOT and adidas. The sneaker is built on the QI Flow silhouette, which features a contemporary running-inspired shape with layered mesh and textile uppers. Reinforced overlays are applied across the forefoot, midfoot, and heel to add structure while maintaining breathability. The black and white colorways use contrasting panel treatments to emphasize the shoe’s construction and angular form.

The midsole incorporates adidas cushioning technology designed for everyday comfort and support. A rubber outsole provides traction suitable for regular urban wear. Co-branded details appear on the tongue, heel, and side panels, integrating CLOT and adidas identifiers without altering the overall profile. The sneaker maintains a low-top design with a standard lace-up closure and follows the same proportions as previous QI Flow releases.
