These new Visvim Kiefer Mid Cypher kicks are a perfect choice for both comfort and function. They come in four colorways of black, white, olive, and burgundy and are very light weight. The shoes sport a lightweight mid-sole along with an EVA pylon cup sole for absorption and support. Each shoe also has its own designed writings on them like capital, creativity, the exclusive, and fuck. Not sure what they mean but they give these shoes an unexpected twist.

This year has been big for Adidas in terms of the creativity behind their new sneaker campaign releases. Some examples were the Adicolor launch and of course, the Materials of the World project. Lucky for us Adidas will once again will do another Adidas Materials of the World release for 2007. Once again, Adidas will scour the world for materials and patterns to infuse with sneakers, hoodies, tees, and other products. The first model to be released for 2007 will be an homage to England in the form of a ZX 500 shoe. It’s a combination of patent leather and suede with a pinstripe design. Watch out for this and more in 2007.
