How To Lace Your Sneakers / Swap Your Shoe Laces : ADIDAS Alphabounce Core Black

Shoe Laces / Laceswap Recommendations This brand new silhouette, I believe, has the potential to take over the Ultra Boost as their best-selling sneakers. The moment I saw their debut-range of colorways, I knew it would be an instant hit and customers all over the world agreed with me as just like the Ultra Boost, every single pair was snapped up on release date. ADIDAS has found the perfect formula to making new sneakers. By combining form and function, they have been able to attract individuals like me who wants a stylish pair of sneakers but yet, it needs to...

Pharrell's ADIDAS NMD "Human Race" - My Opinion

Pharrell's ADIDAS NMD "Human Race" - My Opinion

Took one look at it and I went WTF? I seriously got to say this is not something I will be caught wearing in public. It's unique definitely, with that huge statement "HUMAN RACE" emblazoned all over the upper and looking a like a banana with words. What was ADIDAS thinking? The NMDs prides itself on simplicity and the design, not on big statement pieces! Leave it to those hipster indie brands. The only thing I like about this shoe is the new lacing system. The cage at the side, with the various possible eyelets, will allow for different styles...

VIDEO : How To Black Out Your ADIDAS Boost Midsoles

Posted by FARHAN ZAINI

MANY Boost sneakers have been released by ADIDAS over the past 2-3 years but a blacked-out Boost midsole is extremely hard to come by. Only recently in the past week did ADIDAS release the Ultra Boost Uncaged with colored midsoles and we can only hope that the positive feedback garnered from that release will spur ADIDAS on to release more colored midsoles, not just black. In any case, if you can't wait, FEATURE TV has released a video tutorial on how to personally black out your Boost midsoles.  The video lists out Step - By - Step instructions on the process....

Shoelace Laceswap Recommendations - ADIDAS NMD XR1 Primeknit Grey

Laceswap Recommendation Is it me or the NMD is growing far too fast for me to even come up with the cash to buy them? The NMD family just keeps on growing with the addition of another colorway to the XR1 silhouette, this time in Grey. Previously I wrote an article on their camo pack, this time it's more of a muted colorway with peach accents on the sole and heel strap. The upper is made of Primeknit so you're guaranteed a very comfortable and light-weight experience. Don't you guys get reminded of the tubular when you see this? Click...

MOST important thing to take note of when getting shoelaces for your Ultra Boost

Posted by FARHAN ZAINI

MOST important thing to take note of when getting shoelaces for your Ultra Boost

One of the most important thing that most of my customers fail to consider when buying laces for their Ultra Boost is the size of the eyelet. The eyelets are extremely small and narrow, which only allows for lace tips of certain sizes to fit through holes. That is why at Slickieslaces, we have customised Rope and Flat laces that are made to easily fit through these eyelets without the need to force them through.  Check out the collection of BOOST / NMD Laces Slickieslaces have to offer! However, that doesn't mean all is lost. All you need to do is...

SHOE LACES LENGTH GUIDE: How do I determine the length of my ADIDAS Ultra Boost shoelaces?

SHOE LACES LENGTH GUIDE: How do I determine the length of my ADIDAS Ultra Boost shoelaces?

Step 1 Count the number of eyelets. Step 2 3 Pairs of Eyelets - Recommended length is 80cm-90cm 4 Pairs of Eyelets - Recommended length is 95cm-105cm The ADIDAS Ultra Boost Uncaged and NMD series, which comes with 3 pairs of eyelets, require much shorter laces. Especially for the NMDs, which comes at a ridiculously long pair of laces. You should probably change it to shorter ones.  For the original design Ultra Boost (with cage) that comes with 4 pairs of eyelets, I determined that 95cm is the most appropriate length but you can also use up to 105cm for...

Colored Heels are coming to the ADIDAS Ultra Boost

Colored heels ain't new, you see them on the OG Black Ultra Boost with those purple heels but when ADIDAS releases one in a "Triple White" colorway, you really stand up and take notice. In one of my previous articles, you saw how ADIDAS tried to experiment with colored boost soles, now they are planning to test the market with colored heels? Not sure when these will be released, but if they offer customisation options for the UBs, that would be dope!. Check out the collection of BOOST / NMD Laces Slickieslaces have to offer!

ADIDAS is releasing colored Ultra Boosts due to heavy demand

Posted by FARHAN ZAINI

If you have not been hiding in a forest for the past few days, you would have seen pictures floating around the internet of colored Boost soles. In instagram, you could find pictures of avid collectors customising their kicks by painting over the white Boost soles using paint that you can find on the web. However, ADIDAS must have been observing this trend and decided to cash in on it because they are finally debuting their own line of colored boosts. From the picture above, you could see the Ultra Boost Uncaged with colored boosts. Will we see this trend...

How To Lace Your Sneakers / Swap Your Shoe Laces : ADIDAS NMD XR1 Triple White

Posted by FARHAN ZAINI

Shoe Laces / Laceswap Recommendations The Triple White NMDs has been one of the most popular shoes of 2016 so far, and I believe the upcoming XR1s Triple White will be no different. ADIDAS previewed the XR1 during fall, and explained the evolution from the R1 to XR1. In the end, it ended up looking like the Tubulars? But that's my opinion :) Click below for our recommended pair of laces! Check out the collection of BOOST / NMD Laces Slickieslaces have to offer!
