The Adilette from adidas is Made with the Brand's Primeknit Material
Riley von Niessen — May 8, 2017 — Fashion
In order to give its consumers more options for the summer, adidas recently released the 'Adilette,' slip-on sandals that are made with its popular Primeknit material.
Although the material is normally used to construct the uppers of athletic sneakers, it's inclusion on the straps of the Adilette makes them incredibly lightweight, breathable, and comfortable to wear. The soles of the slip-on sandals are made from similar material to the 'BOOST' model, which allows them to form to the wearer's feet and prevents them from slipping around as they walk.
The Adilette comes in two colorways: one that's black with adidas' three stripes complementing it in white, and another that's white with black stripes on the straps.
