Utilitarian-Style Tonal Sneakers

adidas Drops the Summer Spice Sneaker Pack For Spring/Summer 2018

— May 8, 2018 — Fashion
German sportswear giant adidas prepares for the warmer seasons with its latest Summer Spice pack full of new and classic footwear silhouettes. The label includes the all-new Atric F/22 PK as a part of the pack, and it boasts a utilitarian aesthetic that also adorns the other four pieces in the series. The Summer Spice pack also consists of the NMD R2, the Swift Run, the EQT Support ADV, and the adilette Sock shoes -- all of which retain the Summer Spice design palette of orange tones and black detailing accents.

The sneakers all take on an atric-inspired aesthetic and are constructed with weather-combating elements through its Primeknit and Merino wool blend across its uppers. Some additional components across all the footwear models include TPU accenting, heel pull tabs, adidas' three stripe branding, the label's signature Boost cushioning, and a gum rubber outsole. The Summer Spice pack is set to release on May 11th at adidas and select retailers globally.
