At the end of April, we showcased the adidas Yeezy 500 'Salt', and after months and months of waiting, the chunky sneaker is finally releasing at 7am at Foot Locker UK! Constructed of a combination of mesh, suede, and leather, this clean crep is as unique as it gets. A greyed out version of the 'Blush', this is, without a doubt, one of the most versatile shoes out there, and here's exactly why you need a pair in your sneaker collection!
Why wouldn't you?
Back when it was first announced, the 'Salt' quickly rose to the top of everyone's 'To Cop' list, and now that it's finally releasing, why wouldn't you cop? One of the more versatile Yeezy 500 shades out there, being a greyed out version of the 'Blush' and an inverted version of the 'Utility Black', there simply is no reason why you wouldn't add these your sneaker collection!
Infinite possibilities
The 'Salt' is pretty much a canvas just waiting to be customised and personalised to your heart's desire. Whether you're going to paint it with one of your favourite pieces of art, or dip it into a bucket full of pink dye, the sneaker offers wearers infinite possibilities if they don't want to rock an all-grey shoe.
Character is key
If you're scared that you'll get the 'Salt' dirty, especially in the wet and windy months, we have one word for you – don't. We understand that you want to keep your kicks as box fresh as possible, but a few marks here and there don't take away from your shoe. In fact, they give it a whole lot more character that will certainly earn the approval of your fellow sneakerheads.
Comfortable AF
One of the biggest reasons why everyone should own a pair of 'Salt' is simply because they're so damn comfy. Crafted from a premium suede and supple leather upper, these shoes are crazy cozy. And that's not all, a full length adiPRENE midsole sits underfoot, offering wearers extra comfort and a smoother stride. With unbeatable energy return, each and every step will feel like you're walking on a plump cloud.
Make a statement
There's no hiding from the fact that the 'Salt' is extremely eye-catching, so why not make a statement by making it the centrepiece to all your outfits? Simple yet striking, absolutely any outfit will go perfectly if you have a pair of these Yeezys on feet. Just think about that for a minute! Also, if you want to jump into the chunky dad shoe trend, these are the perfect way to ease yourself into the fun fad without going too crazy.
Set to release at 7am at Foot Locker UK, which is about two hours earlier than other stockists, be sure to head on over tomorrow morning for your best chance to cop the adidas Yeezy 500 'Salt'! While you're here, check out the ten hottest sneakers of November 2018!
