The Yeezy Slide's appeal has always revolved around its minimalist aesthetic, a style that has accrued a cult-like following over the years. Even though the Adidas and Yeezy collaboration has officially closed, a new Yeezy Slide colorway has emerged, injecting a subtle twist into the lineup. Dubbed "Salt," this new iteration veers away from the recently rumored "White Salt" and instead opts for an earthy, grey-green hue that draws inspiration from the natural salts of the Earth.
In keeping with Yeezy's design philosophy, the "Salt" slide features the same monochromatic scheme we expect. The slide is awash in a single hue from its foam upper down to its sole, celebrating the restrained charm the Yeezy Slide series is known for.
This new colorway surfaces at a time when the future of the Yeezy brand under Adidas remains uncertain. Adidas, now under the leadership of Bjørn Gulden, has indicated that it will be charting its own course post-Kanye, but the popularity of the range remains high; This leaves fans pondering whether new Yeezy-inspired releases like the "Salt" slide are simply an effort to clear existing inventory or a sign of what could still be a promising independent future for the Yeezy design portfolio.
While the chances of the “Salt” edition gracing retailer shelves seem slim, the sneaker industry has always been full of surprises.
The raffle is now available on the Adidas Confirmed app.
