adidas' Perfectly Pink Valentine’s Samba Is the Definition of Love
Love is in the air — and the soles. At least over at adidas, where the Three Stripes has cooked up a deliciously Cupid-struck Samba sneaker.
The "Valentine Pink" Samba shoe wears a sweet pink upper played up with red accents throughout, including the signature Three Stripes and toe box.
Elsewhere, the Cupid-coded shoe keeps the richness going with a dark brown outsole that gives the Samba some serious chocolate-covered strawberry energy.
Basically, adidas turned the quintessential Valentine's Day treat into an incredibly wearable low-top sneaker.
Soon available on the adidas website for $160, the Valentine's Day Samba drops with ample time for a V-Day delivery, and honestly, it kind of makes the perfect gift. Chocolates are nice, but you can't really use them to get fly.
Unless we're talking about adidas' extensive lineup of chocolate-coated sneakers, which are the best kind of sweet treat to be fair.
The Valentine's Samba is one of adidas' most direct nods to the day of love, but it's far from the only sneaker inspiring mega heart-eyes with lovely pink and red colorways. In fact, adidas has taken it as far as giving its Superstar II a Hershey's Kiss-inspired makeover, and it even faded away a cute-to-boot baby-pink Samba as well.
I guess you could say adidas is head over heels for lovey dovey footwear.
