adidas' barn of printed sneakers adds another spotted cow to its stable.

The "Chalk Blue/Core Black" adidas Samba sneaker is a flat textural marvel, kitted with a black-and-white pony hair upper that brings some darling dairy charm to the otherwise simple sneaker.

The Samba is a beloved basic shoe that knows the highs and lows of footwear virality quite well. It's been done in just about every iteration you can think of, so it only makes sense that adidas took to the barns to get a little extra inspiration.

Don't have a cow; just model your best sneaker after one. In addition to the asymmetric splotches, this take on the shoe sports baby blue accents at the Three Stripes, laces and heel tab.

A gold Trefoil on the tongue gives the sneaker a rich sportswear vibe that elevates the pitch-ready sneaker.

While brown and white cow print is thoroughly represented in the sneaker space, its black and white counterpart seems to be underutilized, so it's always fun to see adidas pay a little attention to a classic.

In addition to this baby blue adaptation, adidas also gave its Samba LT sneaker a similarly spotted treatment, though this shoe sports a flipped-out tongue, which gives the shoe that Martine Rose-style swag.

Say what you will about a cow's propensity for fashion, but where sneakers are concerned: Cattle is king!
