Retro Leather Skateboard Sneakers

Fucking Awesome Launches a Triple Black of the Experiment 2

adidas works together with Fucking Awesome on a new iteration of the Experiment 2 sneaker model in a Triple Black colorway. It is made with inspiration from the looks of old-school skate sneakers and features an upper constructed from leather materials. It all sits on top of a rubber sole unit foundation and textile lining to round out the materials.

In terms of the detailing, the shoes are designed with branding seen by the heel in the form of the gold adidas Originals logo. The spotlight shines at the tongue as it is adorned in a variety of national flags along with a simple "FA." It is set to launch officially on August 13th online adidas.
