Style Code: FY0951
Colourway: Sand/Core Black/Sub Green
A couple of months ago, adidas brought back the FYW XTA, a modern revival of the 1996 EQT XTR. Now, another original colourway is set to return within days, this time in beige, black and green.
As a trail-running design, the form factor is quite radical for its time. Massive rubber tread wraps around the midsole, leading to the hybrid nubuck and mesh upper, which is locked down by wide woven lace straps. Inside, the old FYW logo is reprised on the left insole; a nice throwback to those who owned these back in the late-90s. The original adidas EQT box is a nice period correct touch too. By the way, that FYW logo is meant resemble a foot!
Releasing at boutiques like SNS on September 3.
