The Busenitz Pro is easily one of adidas' most popular skate shoes, particularly because of its classical Copa Mundial-inspired appearance. Well, adidas has kicked things up a notch for Spring '17, giving the shoe a Scarlet/White treatment highly resemblant of a Gazelle colourway, and it simply radiates summer style.
As is so often the case, a full suede upper has been utilised, providing a nice and bold shade of red. Stitching across the upper, including the decorative kind around the toebox, comes in a tonal red colour, letting the white leather Three stripes, white tongue and white laces stand out strongly. Branding contributes to the colourway nicely, with white Busenitz text running parallel with the lateral Three stripes and a red woven adidas label sitting on the top of the tongue. The midsole and outsole both come in white, too, creating a very cohesive colourway on the whole.
Around the ankle we see a GEOFIT collar, providing an anatomical fit and important support to the ankle, enhancing the comfort of the shoe significantly. Also improving the latter is the moulded PU sockliner, which offers great cushioning under the whole of the foot. Board feel isn't sacrificed, though, thanks to the cupsole construction that lets your foot sit deep in the shoe and closer to your board. Finally, a Vector Traction pattern on the outsole means you'll be able to skate in the ful confidence that your feet are secure on your board.
Adidas Skateboarding's incredible Spring '17 collection, packed with great skate-optimised technology and some very stylish colourways, is available online here at Attitude and in our Colchester store.
