NMD 2019 has teamed up with lifestyle boutique Commonwealth on a collaborative edition of the ZX 500 RM silhouette, taking inspiration from the coastal traditions that bond Commonwealth’s two most recently-opened locations in Los Angeles and the Philippines. The shoe is constructed from a synthetic suede with translucent monofilament mesh underlays and TPU welded overlays for structure, with embroidered Three Stripe marks and heel details in soft, aquatic colors.
Exploring elements of translucency and fluidity, the adidas ZX500 RM Boost Commonwealth is inspired by the coastal living of Virginia Beach, Los Angeles and the Philippines. This is then placed atop a Boost midsole for optimum cushioning, finished off with a durable rubber outsole, while light touches such as a co-branded insole, Consortium tongue label and Commonwealth woven label on the lateral ankle completes the design.
The Yeezy Boost 2019 comes in multiple shades of Green as a nod to Shenron's skin color. Red accents from his eyes are used on the midsole as well as the Japanese characters, along with Yellow detailing to mimic his belly. Other details includes Grey scale-texture above the midsole and heel tab completed with custom Dragon Ball Z insoles. The Goku ZX 500 RM and the Frieza Yung-1 kicks off the adidas Dragon Ball Z Collection, which includes seven silhouettes from the adidas Originals roster, carefully chosen to represent the characteristics of the heroes and villains to which they refer.
