Up Close With The adidas Yeezy BOOST 350 V2 Beluga

With fever kicking back into gear this week, we thought we’d point the lens at our own pair of Yeezy Boost 350 V2 ‘Beluga’ and take a close up look.

If you’ve not had the privilege of standing face to face with a pair of the celebrity Boosts then you might not realise just how intricately detailed they are. The new weave pattern is a crazy mess of grey, with tiny pops of orange peeking through – the only reprieve being the clean streaks that dart across the upper. The ribbed rubber that encloses the sole is almost sticky to the touch, providing plenty of traction when you’re pounding the mean streets. Inside they take on a whole new level of decadence – the heel is lined with a woven synthetic fabric for breathability and irritation free comfort, while the tongue and forefoot area have a durable suede that keeps the shoe’s shape when you hitch up the laces. The seam down the front is taped off inside, so as to prevent it rubbing on your soft skin and the collar has a silky finished binding.

Don't forget they drop this weekend, September 24. Sign up for the raffles, ditch a camping chair outside your local sneaker store, do whatever you can to slip a foot in and you won’t regret it.
