Adidas Bw Army Dark Brown

Part of the BW Army line. This release has a leather upper in Dark Brown/Dark Brown/Night Brown. BW Army descends from German military issue footwear, a plain leather trainer with a rubber cupsole that was designed to be functional and forgettable and became desirable precisely because of that. Dark Brown moves it away from the familiar off-white and into workwear territory, where the shoe reads less like a reissued trainer and more like a low boot with a sports sole. It is the least performative object in the adidas catalogue, from a company that started in a laundry room in Herzogenaurach making shoes for specific jobs. Sometimes the job is just walking around.
