Designer collaborations are generally cool and exciting. I am always looking forward to see how ideas from creative directors can be harvested and compliment the vision of the design house.
Designer Kasuki Kuraishi teamed up with Adidas for a range of apparel and sneakers. This pair of boots is one offspring of the collaboration. I like how this isn't a piece that screams for attention. Instead, it's the kind of footwear that people slowly notice and compliment.
The visible stitching and perforations add a dose of detail while the black and white of the boots contrast perfectly. I especially like how the heel has both black and white (contrasting at the cap toe) - it provides visual stimulation without trying too hard.
