Following the introduction of the ZX 2K 4D, we now have a first look at the adidas IIM 4D.

Coming courtesy of sneaker insider YankeeKicks, the upcoming model appears in a futuristic “Grey/Silver.” The distinct Primeknit upper is riddled with hits of color by the toebox and structural piping woven throughout the shoe that plays with the traditional lacing system to hold the foot in place. Surrounding the shoe is a TPU molded cupsole paired to the 4D technology cushioning system crafted using Carbon’s Digital Light Synthesis to 3D print a cushioned, responsive and light sole unit. Finally, a unique parallel vertical line rubber tread applied to the bottom of the shoe rounds up the design of adidas’ 4D innovation.

Take a first look at the adidas IIM 4D above.
