Basketball season isn’t over for Adidas Yeezy. The Kanye-led label plans to release its BSKTBL Knit sneaker this week, now dressing its mixed knit upper in tan and royal blue. An elongated black collar, reflective heel counter, and solid blue outsole finish off the court-ready shoes.
The BSKTBL Knit first released at the tail end of 2021, outlining a hopeful revival for Adidas’s basketball division, which has slumped over the past few years. Yet even Yeezy hype doesn’t seem to have helped: The label’s first-ever basketball sneaker, the Quantum Basketball, was widely snubbed by athletes and hypebeasts alike, while the BSKTBL Knit currently resells well under its $300 retail price. Pairs can be found for as little as $126, although it’s worth noting a new release and color scheme could slightly raise the shoe’s value.
