ÿþAfter an unveiling of adidas' new Chromatech technology on the SL Loop Racer last week, now we get a closer look at one of the colorways ahead of their drop date of May 8th. It's the black colorway we're here to check out, which features a decidedly dark look with the color-shifting Chromatech coat leaving diamond shapes in the negative space. We're guessing pictures really don't do these babies justice, so you'll want to get a look at them in person upon their release. Look for the SL Loop Racer Chromatech at select adidas Originals retailers globally this Friday.

Highlighting elder statesmen in the brand archive including the adidas Hand-Burg, adidas Touring, adidas Boston & adidas Topanga, each model denotes premium nubuck, suede, and leather uppers in bold coloring, helping preserve their minimal nature and classic appeal. The SPEZIAL x adidas Originals Footwear collection releases this Saturday, October 25th in-store and online at Foot Patrol .The adidas Stan Smith gets knitted once again for another round of the classic tennis sneaker in the popular Primeknit construction. This time two appealing colorways show up, with one in heathered grey and the other in vibrant purple, each with matching Stan Smith tongue logos and white accents.

This new adidas Crazy Light 3 is a lower cut of the CL3 with which we're more familiar, and it's also a clear progression from the first two models in the series.

With a more unique and subtle take to an American-themed sneaker than the usual stars-and-stripes-plastered treatment, the adidas D Lillard 1 still packs in plenty of patriotism with an ice blue upper accented with snake-textured red paneling and red-flecked blue laces.

No confirmed release date has been announced yet, but you can expect the D Lillard 1 "Independence Day" to pop off right around July 4th.Although the NFL is a league dominated by Swoosh logos, adidas has a strong ace up its sleeve  Robert Griffin III. The Redskins QB has all the makings of a superstar, and soon enough he'll have his own signature shoe to add to that list of elite-level athletes. Here we have a first look at a sample of the adidas Energy Boost Trainer for RGIII; it features Energy Boost cushioning on the heel with a flat black upper, a large heel cap, and a colorful mid-foot strap with multi-color effects. Check out the photo gallery below and let us know what you think of this RGIII signature shoe.

A white Boost midsole provides both cushioning and contrast, and the shoe is completed with a marbled pink, yellow, and white outsole. Look for this collaborative Ultra Boost to release alongside a premium velour towel from the fictitious AKOG athletic club August 25th on and at adidas Consortium retailers worldwide.One undisputable fact: for one prolonged stretch in the early-mid 2000's, Tracy McGrady was the single best player in the NBA. Some will argue that he and fellow High-schooler Kobe Bryant were 1a and 1b, but T-Mac had all of the scoring prowess, athleticism, and pure talent as Kobe did, only the Mac was three inches taller and arguably more explosive.

adidas didn't mess with a working formula when they brought out the T-Mac 3. The embossed stripes at the toe were now moved to the medial sidewall, giving the lateral view a cleaner look  perfect for that sick alligator-skin and patent leather material. The most memorable moment that came in these shoes was undoubtedly the 2004 NBA All-Star Game, when he wore mis-matched patent leather royal blue and red for the game.
