adidas is Set to Drop the Trae Young 1 'Peach Tree' Mid November
Niko Pajkovic — November 4, 2021 — Pop Culture
Basketball superstar Trae Young has teamed up with adidas to release the 'Peach Tree' basketball sneaker. The new sneaker will be released alongside the NBA player's two other slushy-inspired silhouettes -- also collaborations with adidas -- revealed earlier this month.
According to Young, the new sneakers were inspired by the famous peach trees found in Georgia, the city that he currently plays for. As a result, the 'Peach Tree' silhouette comes donning an Acid Orange colorway covering the shoes' mesh uppers, eyelets, midsoles, and outsoles. In addition, pops of bright green are found on the sneakers' heel tabs, which are meant to resemble the stem of a peach fruit. Meanwhile, a peach graphic is printed on the sock-liner, and a BOOST-cushion has been added between the shoes' two soles. The added cushion is delivered in a plain white hue balancing out the sneakers' color scheme.
