Riley von Niessen — September 26, 2016 — Fashion
A brand that's known to have a talent for adapting sneakers with a luxurious twist, The Remade recently set its sights on the Hermès and adidas Originals NMD model.
The sneakers are elaborately elegant, with python material on the ankle and heel of the uppers that constructs straps that stick out and tags that hang down. In addition, The Remade supplies the sneakers with a few gold accents, which are shown most prominently on the tongue with a large lock and on a plate that finishes off the snakeskin strap -- however the lock can alternatively be taken off and placed on the heel instead.
These accents appear additionally on the side of the strap and on the tag a little as well. Meanwhile, the majority of the upper is made up of a sleek soft leather.
