The timeless look of the Adidas 3MC Shoes makes these the perfect low-cut addition for summer. The durable suede uppers feature across the toe box running to the lacing unit and as a subtle trim on the heel in off-white - further detailing includes a golden adidas spellout beneath the eyestays and on the heel. The quarter panels are finished in crisp, white canvas, with elevated stitching reinterpreting the classic three stripes. This tonal upper is brought together on a textured white midsole.
Despite presenting itself in such a simplistic style, the adidas 3MC features technical design aspects including a patented HexFlex outsole which allows for maximum flexibility as well as unrivalled boardfeel which is additionally contributed to by the vulcanised construction. The midsole uses herringbone patterning to improve flicking consistency, while the suede trim prevents wear and tear in these high-stress areas. Finally an EVA sockliner provides responsive cushioning against impacts both on and off the board.
