Jovani Hernandez After three years of being teased (under a different name at that), the adidas Yeezy 450 released on March 4th, 2021 in a “Cloud White” colorway. For its next proposition, the predominantly-Primeknit design has indulged in a stark contrasting “Dark Slate” colorway.
As with the inaugural style, the forthcoming pair features a sock-like, breathable and lightweight upper. Instead of boasting an off-white tone, however, the recently-surfaced Yeezy sneaker sports a pitch-black makeup that extends onto the lacing system. The single-piece, teeth-reminiscent cage that doubles as the sole unit also partakes in the “Dark Slate” makeup, but delivers some flair to the muted aesthetic given its untraditional design. Although BOOST-less, the claw-like tooling is set to appears on other Yeezys throughout the upcoming years, including the ever-popular Yeezy Slides lineup.
Enjoy detailed images of the Yeezy 450 “Dark Slate” here below, and anticipate pairs to arrive before summer ends.
