There’s collaborations galore that are being pumped out by the adidas family this Fall including that of the collection with Disney’s Monsters, Inc., a dog-inspired team-up with Extra Butter and a motion-blurred EQT PROTO with atmos. And to fill up its release calendar with another release, the Three Stripes team has just unveiled a new collection with Kawasaki that features Ninja-inspired adidas ZX 8000 and the adidas ZX 5K BOOST installments.

In this two-pronged pack, the adidas ZX 8000 is the more flamboyant option as it carries more statement-making accents. Both sides are styled with the same neon green and blue hits that you’d find on the Japanese company’s signature Ninja motorcycle, both of which plant themselves onto the leather overlays across the upper. Underneath sits perforated leathers that arrive in white while metallic silver molds hug the lateral and medial heels. The brand’s Ninja branding plasters across the lateral side on the left shoe while the right shoe places it on the medial panel.

Its release sibling in the adidas ZX 5K BOOST takes a much darker design approach. Most of the real estate here is done up in a solid black while the rear cages also bring in some metallic silver applications. From there, slime green accents steal the show as they fill in the lace loops, dubraes, “Ninja” spell outs and the quarter panel’s trim.

At the time of writing, an official launch date hasn’t been announced, but be sure to keep an eye out on the adidas release calendar in the coming weeks if you want to cop.

For other news, Real Madrid’s 2021/22 Third Kit by adidas was recently revealed.
