The adidas Yeezy 500 ‘Granite’ updates the retro-inspired lifestyle runner with a subdued greyscale finish.
Stripped of conspicuous branding, the upper combines charcoal-colored mesh with tonal suede and leather overlays.
The collar is lined in padded Lycra for a comfortable fit, while a seamless rubber mudguard offers improved durability.
The sneaker sits atop a podular adiPRENE+ midsole inspired by the adidas KB8 3, a Kobe Bryant signature model originally released in 1999.
Adidas' logo is three stripes, which is used on the company's clothing and shoe designs as a marketing aid. The branding, which Adidas bought in 1952 from Finnish sports company Karhu Sports, became so successful that Dassler described Adidas as "The three stripes company".
