The Adidas Superskate Mid ‘Ping Pong’ sneaker has been served up to the masses, and one cannot help but be overcome with urge to play a quick game of table tennis.
The side panels feature the same rubber used on ping pong rackets, as well as the same red and blue color scheme. The tongue displays a racket print and the kicks even come with a set of novelty mini-rackets. Very nice.
