Highlighted by a stream of adidas Crazy IIINFINITY and Mad IIINFINITY releases, Kobe Bryant’s legacy still very much informs the makeup of Three Stripes Basketball. However German creatives spin-off from the mainline though, the classics are the classics for a reason. Leaning on #8’s heritage, the latest adidas Crazy 8 embraces a “Lakers Home” edition.

A neutral blend of “Core White” and “Off White” run throughout this shoe’s base, the just-adjacent tones creating a bit of depth via the pockets and strips of leather & rubber that make up the upper & sole. Given this is meant to mirror Staples Center wear, it’s understandable, as is the relatively minimized role that accent shades of yellow & “Collegiate Purple” play on this profile. A glittering branding patch on the tongue and gilded “Feet You Wear” embroidery on the laces round this simplified design.

The adidas Crazy 8 “Lakers Home” releases this Holiday season, retailing at $150. Our Sneaker Release Dates hub will remain updated with further release info as it emerges.
