The 'Prophere' model from adidas Originals has long been anticipated amongst sneakerheads, with the sleek and futuristic design helping to boost any casual ensemble.
The sneakers boast an incredibly lightweight design due to their woven uppers that also help with breathability. In contrast to the soft material of the uppers is are textured bulky soles, which go far up the sneakers to give them a bolder aesthetic. The texturing on the white soles looks similar to tire marks, with symmetrical zigzags running all over the material. To add some variance to the gray and white colorway, adidas Originals includes some bright orange accents on the heels, as well as on a few parts on the outsoles.
