Michael Le China’s Melting Sadness, though obscured in mystery, claims an aesthetic difficult to ignore, one that seemingly channels a few decade-old standouts 3king any under the belt of Jeremy Scott. In a style similar to the designer’s bear-clad offerings, the Chinese label’s take on the adidas Superstar The Adidas NMD R1 Black Leopard Print Is A Must Have.
As such, the Superstar has been provided a number of interesting additions, most animalistic in their visuals. Bunny-mouthed embroideries dress the heel as a minimal, straightforward opener, grounding the motifs further elaborated on via the short scut tails attached to the counter and the pronounced ears that rest along the side of the lace unit. Elsewhere, faux furs are doused in a bright blue all throughout, matched by darker leathers atop the tongue and heel tab; side profiles are then accented further with a natural tan as the Three Stripes sensebounce atop in complement to the tongue and insole. Below, the sole finishes with distressing, the side walls and shell toe brushed with brown all across.
