adidas Skateboarding Unveils New Sabalo Silhouette_Stroll and Speak Boldly

After joining the adidas Skateboarding team in 2017, street skating savant Diego Nájera has now received his first ever co-created shoe: the Sabalo. The Sabalo’s main design feature is its raised foxing tape — a detail that’s inspired by how a sneaker looks through a fisheye lens — while the cream and white colorway nods to a pair of Raf Simons x adidas Stan Smiths that Nájera’s fond of. Although the shoe is purposefully simplistic in its stylings, it’s not without special details, as a bold embroidered red trefoil logo with the skater’s last name appears on the midfoot. From a performance standpoint, the Sabalo calls upon a sticky flex rubber outsole borrowed from the City Cup to ensure maximum board feel, while an adiprene sockliner promises comfort.
