Adidas will be partnering with Xbox to release a series of co-branded sneakers. Sources "familiar with the upcoming collaboration" passed this information onto the sneakerhead website Complex.
In addition to this, an Adidas document has revealed the first shoe, which is scheduled for release in April. It'll be a promo version of a new shoe called the Forum Tech Boost, and can be seen in the left photo below. Keep in mind, it's still work-in-progress.

I dig em.. curious how much they will cost.
Hope they arrive in the UK, we don’t seem to get all the merchandise etc over here.
I would buy these and I don't usually wear console branded clothing. I'm hoping for more info on a UK release.
Not as nice as nikes playstation trainers but either way both are going to be impossible to get
@UltimateOtaku91
Why go to all that effort to design and manufacture etc and always demand out strips supply.
If you have gone to all that trouble then make more and sell more, it also advertises the Xbox brand as well as you walk around.
@SegataSanshiro Yeah it’s crazy. Good thing I’ve been wearing shell-toes for the last 20 years and don’t have to bankrupt myself for shoes. I know a few friends who do though and I’ve seen some reporting on the shoe grey market. https://www.google.com/amp/s/finance.yahoo.com/amphtml/news/global-sneaker-resale-market-could-reach-30-billion-by-2030-cowen-191003371.html
Needs more green. 💚
I like them, but a green inlay would have been cool, or just a bit more subtle green somewhere.
I would definitely buy these if they are reasonably priced, which they more than likely won't be.
Also, Adidas does some of the best crossover stuff. Will love Adidas X Star Wars forever. Even the ads are still golden.
As a grown man I feel like I shouldn't be walking around in piublic wearing Xbox labelled clothing. I'd argue that pj's are acceptable as only the family get to see those and their expectations of me are low enough anyway!
@StonyKL I'm not ashamed of anything I like. I still wear whatever I want at 31, and don't let people dictate how I should look, unless I'm at work.
Wow sneakers and gen 9 consoles together at last. MS really should have just bought Discord to cash in on all the scalper rings and really ramp up that corporate synergy.
