With Chinese New Year being February 10th, adidas is ready for the for the Zodiac change with this edition of the Rose 3.5 basketball sneaker. The black upper is designed to give off the appearance of snake scales with a metallic gold SPRINTFRAME midsole. Most interestingly seen in this picture is the sticker stating that the color will eventually fade on some part of the sneaker, right now that area of the shoe just isn’t specified. When we get closer to the release, we will have full details about the entire shoe in our Kicks section.
This detailed look at the ‘Year of the Snake’ Rose 3.5 comes after we gave you an early look at the first two Rose 3.5 colorways yesterday.
