adidas Originals Tubular ZX 8000 Hybrid

The adidas Originals Tubular continues to prove itself as the most versatile new design that the brand has come up with as of late. This time, the bare-bones runner gets a bit of a skeletal boost thanks to some assistance from its cousin, the adidas Originals ZX 8000.

The adidas Originals Tubular ZX 8000 Hybrid takes the elements of both shoes and mashes them together for a look that almost feels native. The midsole and toe-box are packed in that trademark Tubular comfort while a ZX 8000 mid-panel and heel play the support role. Taking things a step further, the insole has a bootie-like ankle extension for added support.

The sneakers aren't currently available in the U.S., and while Luisaviaroma has them in stock, they aren't available to be shipped. Looks like we'll just have to wait and see if adidas loves us enough to give us access.
