Taking on the Look of One of Its Best Sneakers, adidas’ Best Slip-on Goes Big on Big
Everything is bigger in Texas and… Germany? That's the word on the adidas streets anyway. Large and in charge, adidas' supersized Adimule Slide is a chunky slip-on designed for off-court shenanigans.
Think of the biggest slip-on you know. Now double it. That's whereabouts this enlarged Adimule Slide lives.
Rocking an enlarged shell-toe, akin to what you'd find on a classic adidas Superstar, with a perforated Three Stripes and embossed "Superstar" lettering that brings some subtlety to the otherwise in-your-face slide.
In terms of silhouette, the Adimule Slide's enlarged appearance and slightly squared toe, a recent adidas fave, give the slip-on a cartoon-esque appearance.
It's almost comically large, which is part of the shoe's general appeal. Go big or go home and such.
The cork sole and suede longbed bring a touch of Birkenstock-ish flair to the beefy slip-on that's luxed up through a soft suede upper.
Casual slip-ons are a well-studied part of adidas' footwear lexicon, and this extra-thique mule is basically an overinflated version of adidas' standard Adimule, fused with the best parts of a Superstar. Despite pulling inspo from various pieces of adidas' lore, the Adimule isn't quite a hybrid shoe.
It's basically just a casual slip-on having a minor identity crisis to everyone's collective benefit.
