South Korea-Inspired Vibrant Shoes

Son Heung-Min Joins adidas on a New X Crazyfast Football Boot

adidas works together with Tottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-Min on a new version of the classic X Crazyfast football boot. The shoes are detailed with bright tones throughout the entire silhouette and this is meant to be inspired by the bright lights and big cities in South Korea.

It starts off with a pink base foundation and is then detailed with speckles of yellow for a bold tonal contrast that starts from the bottom. Additionally, there is also the application of purple that details the collar and the custom adidas branding. Overall, the upper is made with the brand's slightly clear Aeropacity Speedskin upper, which ensures that it remains lightweight and breathable. It also features a sustainable build with a series of recycled materials.
