MA-1 Bomber Jackets Inspire The Yeezy Boost 350 V2 "Desert Sage"

When we first caught a glimpse of the Yeezy Boost 350 V2 "Desert Sage", we really had no idea what to expect. While the initial render was pretty clear, we weren't entirely sure what the exact colourway would be. We weren't even positive that the iconic heel tab would make a return! With that said, we're now getting up close and personal with the actual shoe!

Hands down one of the best Kanye x adidas sneakers ever made, the first thing that you'll notice about the "Desert Sage" is the light green Primeknit upper that's never been done on any 350 V2 before. Striking orange accents highlight the sockliner, inspired by the classic MA-1 bomber jacket that's been a military staple since the '50s.

While previous mockups showcased a mesh stripe along the laterals, it looks like this will be replaced with a fully reflective one that is sure to turn heads both in the day and in the night. This funky feature has never been done before on previous releases, so it's exciting to see Ye trying new things.

Moving down below, the iconic Boost midsole is present, offering comfort and cushioning that's truly out of this world. This is then lined with a slither of gum rubber, finalising the look.

If, like us, you're extremely hyped for the adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 "Desert Sage", you'll be happy to find out that it should drop sometime in Spring 2020 alongside the "Earth". Let us know what you think of this, and while you're here, take your first look at the Yeezy Boost 380 "Earthly" and "Pepper"!
