The Holo Peak arrives here in two colourways. Brown / Maroon on 15 September, Black / Iron on 19 September. 150 € each, US 8 to US 12.

First, because the question always comes: not a skate shoe. The Holo Peak comes out of Adidas' Creation Center in Shanghai and is built for the street, closer to gorpcore than to a deck.

The upper is a mix of heavy textile and synthetic, cut to follow movement rather than restrict it. Lacing runs through a quick-lace system. Cushioning is Lightstrike, Adidas' light foam. The sole is bonded by cold cement rather than vulcanised. The outsole itself comes from Continental. Recycled materials are used throughout.

The first colourway of the run, White / Grey Two / Silver Metallic, came out in mid-July. Ours are the second wave.

Black / Iron carries item number KI1520, Brown / Maroon KI1522.
