Shoelaces / Laceswap Recommendations for Ultra Boost MID Run Thru Time

Shoelaces / Laceswap Recommendations for NMD R1 Japan Triple Black It doesn't seem like ADIDAS is planning to slow down its NMD releases anytime soon. After a slew of designs hit retailers on July 13th, ADIDAS released a preview of its NMD R1 Japan Triple Black. If you were one of those that did not manage to get a pair, this is definitely one that you should try harder to cop. This NMD R1 features black woven upper with black stripes that is barely visible due to it being the same shade with the primeknit upper. It also comes with...

A closer look at the Ultra Boost 4.0 This is the closest we will ever get to a 1.0 design as I don't think ADIDAS plans to go back the OG. However, I have say that if the 4.0 design is truly as it is in the picture above, it is a definitely a step forward from the 3.0. The 3.0 with its "cum cage" was a hype killer, even till now as some colorways are still sitting in stores. The 3.0 has an arrowhead primeknit design, similar to the 1.0. One big thing that also changed, was the removal...

Shoelaces / Laceswap Recommendations for the NMD XR1 Size? X Henry Poole The ADIDAS NMD silhouettes has always been known to be trendy and stylish appeal, but classy? I don't think many would equate wearing NMDs to being classy but now all that might change. The NMD silhouette is about to mature into a "grown man" as it teams up with Size? and historic tailor Henry Poole on two new sneakers, the XR1 and R2. We will only be writing on the XR1 in this article. The Size? X Henry Poole XR1 comes in navy, black and white and is...

Shoelaces / Laceswap Recommendations for NMD R1 French Grey Don't try to fix what ain't broken. What I'm trying to say is, trash the R2 and stick to the R1. The NMD R1 French Beige was one of the more awesome releases of the NMD silhouette. Sold out and fetching for quite a high resell price, ADIDAS clearly noticed its popularity and is planning a release of a couple more colorways. It is a simple design, with a tonal primeknit on the upper and french letterings on the front midsole bumper. Nothing loud, but it looks great. These however, are...

NMD / Ultra Boost Japanese Katakana Laces and how it all started 5 months ago, Slickieslaces was doing well but we were always trying to find that one product that will help catapult us up. One day, I came across this listing on a marketplace which sold a pair of NMDs at a crazy mark-up because the tabs had the Katakana letterings. From then on, I was inspired to create my first batch of Limited Edition Katakana Laces which till now, is still in demand. There were lot of issues when I was trying to manufacture these laces. For one,...

Shoelaces / Laceswap Recommendations for ADIDAS NMD R1 Primeknit Greyscale I am glad ADIDAS is coming up with new colorways for the R1 and not continually blasting out R2 colorways that will never sell out. R2 has been one of their biggest failures so far, and I hope they will either revamp the design and just trash the silhouette. The R1 Greyscale will be released during the same time as the Red Apple 2.0, which will probably be the hottest NMD release thus far. The greyscale consists of a black and grey upper, with black stripes. Nothing new or exciting,...

Shoelaces / Laceswap Recommendations for NMD R1 Red Apple 2.0 The original Red Apple which dropped last August is arguably one of the most expensive NMDs on the resell market right now. Last I checked, they were reselling for over $2,250 dollars. Not bad for just a pair of red sneakers. But fret not, for the fams who wants a piece of this, a sequel is well on its way to retail stores. We get a detailed look at the Red Apple 2.0. Not much difference, except the colors of the stripes have changed from red to black for a...

Shoe Laces / Laceswap Recommendations for the ADIDAS Ultra Boost 3.0 Multicolor Ltd NIKE is mainly the one responsible for the current hyper surrounding multicolored uppers. With it's highly popular Multicolor Flyknit Racers, they cornered the sneaker market with it. But right now, Adidas is riding on the wave and releasing a bunch of multicolor primeknit kicks to steal a share of the pie. The 3.0 Multicolor Ltd looks extremely similar to the Chinese New Year UB edition, but it's definitely not the same. For one, the primeknit design of the 3.0 is very distinct, with its raised parallel lines. The...

Shoelaces / Laceswap Recommendations for Ultra Boost 3.0 Indigo It seems like a never-ending supply of 3.0s and R2s is ADIDAS's 2017 plan for us. This time round, we see an indigo hued 3.0, which almost looks like a black pair of shoes if you don't peer closely. Indigo covers the entire Primeknit upper, with also an indigo colored TPU cage. The insole however comes in neon instead of the usual black. Nothing special there as no one cares about the insoles. Disappointing release in my opinion. Click below for replacement shoelaces.
