After dropping the silhouette in “Aero Blue,” adidas Originals has returned to the Continental 80 with a new faux snakeskin finish. The sneaker is set to release in two classic colorways, with both a “Chalk White” and “Core Black” take on the snakeskin silhouette dropping later this fall.

The faux snakeskin leather covers most of the upper, with a black stripe down the side and suede touches on the mudguard. The sneaker is then finished with contrast adidas branding and a classic gum outsole. Take a look at the two colorways in the gallery above, and head over to the adidas web store to pick up a pair. Retail for the snakeskin sneakers is £84.95 (approx. $110 USD).
