adidas APS Oki-ni

adidas APS Oki-ni

Here is the adidas APS Oki-ni. According to Crooked Tongues, this crazy colorway is inspired by the “Italian designer Ettore SottsassA’s Memphis furniture creations from the 1980s. The furniture attempted to echo classic design from previous decades in an attempt to combat what they saw as the mediocre design aesthetics of the 1970s. The construction of the furniture utilised a lot of Formica-like laminates often featuring prints such as the A`BacterioA’ pattern which is similar to that found on the APS midsole.” Check out more pictures at Crooked Tongues.
