Adidas' Christmas in Hollis Run-D.M.C Sneakers Are Just Festive Enough
Laura McQuarrie — December 28, 2013 — Fashion
The Christmas in Hollis Run-D.M.C Adidas sneakers take inspiration from the hit song. From a distance, the plain black sneakers don't scream Christmas, but there's enough detailing that shows off its holiday spirit.
On the tongues of the sneakers reads 'Christmas in Hollis' above a piece of artwork by Keith Haring showing 'Mother Holding Baby.' Despite being heavily abstracted, one can piece together out who these figures are meant to represent during Christmas. The insides of the shoes have bright red insides printed with 'RUN DMC.'
A pair of Adidas' Christmas in Hollis Run-D.M.C sneakers go for about $140 on its website and include a pair of black laces. If you're into wearing something festive this time of year, but not willing to go as far as wearing an ugly Christmas sweater, these shoes offer style and a quiet way to show off your holiday spirit.
