Now that we’re fast approaching the season of Spring, flowers are expected to come into full bloom – making for a picturesque sight whenever we step outside. To commemorate this, Adidas has dropped two new shoes with cherry blossom motifs and pink laces, literally depicting flowers coming into bloom.
Whether you’re having an active day out or just chilling with the girlies, take your pick from these limited edition cherry blossom-inspired shoes, which come in the Forum and Superstar series. With a pure white exterior, the shoes are decorated with subtle cherry blossoms decked all over the shoe.
Aptly named as Hanami, which means appreciating flowers, these sneakers are also interchangeable with pink shoelaces, which means that you can always switch them up between your white ones to fit a different vibe.
On the left, the classic original Superstars don the three black stripes, with the added design of multiple cherry blossoms at the front, sides, and back of the shoe. Similarly, the Forum mid-high shoes include a velcro strap above the shoelaces, along with a base that has the Adidas brand engraved on it.
Additionally, both right tongues of the sneakers feature a pink cherry blossom print, while the left has the Adidas logo. Peek closer and you’ll notice more cherry blossoms on the internal soles. This way, you’ll always have the sakuras moving around with you on your daily adventures.
That’s not all — the cherry on top of the sneakers has to be the added feature of the flower outlines turning pink under the sun, with a yellow stem in the middle. With flowers literally blooming on your sneakers while you’re out and about, let’s hope that the bees don’t mistake it for actual pollinating flowers.
If you’re unable to head to Japan to view these cherry blossoms IRL, here are two cost-friendly and gorgeous alternatives for you to consider.
The Superstar Hanami Shoes come with three colour options – cloud white, core black, and off white, and retail at $159 while the Forum Mid Hanami Shoes come in cloud white and off white, and retail at $179. If you’re interested in copping a pair, head over to Adidas’ website now before it’s sold out.
