The adidas JS Wings has always been a polarizing sneaker. You either love the playful creations from the notorious fashion designer or ignore them all together, but this latest basketball-textured pair is hard to ignore because Jordan Brand’s been there and done it before. It’s unknown whether Jeremy Scott knew about the Air Jordan 22 featuring the basketball pebbled leather texture before setting off to create this colorway, but the similarities are definitely noticeable. The basketball inspiration even extends to the Wings overlay while a black midsole and lining allows you to focus on the unique leather tooling. Available today from select stores.
