adidas Original Launches Two New Colorways of the Prophere Sneakers

— September 26, 2018 — Fashion
adidas Originals draws in the talents of SOB X RBE, a hip-hop collective from the West Coast to showcase the latest colorways of its iconic Prophere Sneakers. Both versions boast a predominantly black canvas, with the options of either bright pink touches or white accents. The new options boast high contrasting elements as the bright hues adorning the big three stripes stand out across the dark uppers.

The uppers are constructed from knitted materials and it is set with a panel with heel stabilizing elements. The triple stripe lacing system adds to the shoe's branding detail and it is all rounded off with a bulky midsole. The two new tonal Prophere sneakers are set to hit select retail locations on October 4.
