Lake-Inspired Footwear Silhouettes

adidas Offers an Ozweego Iteration as a size? Exclusive

— July 26, 2019 — Fashion
A new size? exclusive was released on July 19th, signaling that limited edition launches are still of high interest to sneakerheads. The latest offering is an iteration of adidas Originals' iconic Ozweego silhouette. The model features a maroon mesh base for optimal breathability, "earthy suede overlays," as well as details in a subtle aqua blue. The color palette has been strategically chosen as the size? exclusive sneakers draw inspirational cues from Lake Oswego, Oregon. More specifically, the maroon recalls "the bark from Western Red Cedar trees," while the aqua coloring is understandably a hint to the water. Moreover, this Ozweego design sits atop a gum outsole that is adorned in earthy colors, strengthening the connection to nature.
