The announcement of a Palace x Adidas apparel collaboration excited almost every street wear enthusiast around the world, and the relationship with the three striped footwear seems to be no exception. After an unexplicit teaser over the weekend, Palace have exposed the latest addition to the family, the C.M boost.
Drawing inspiration from the renowned Copa Mundial football boot, the shoe combines subtle Palace branding with the simplicity of the three stripes. It may come as a surprise to many that the brainchild for this design was from a soccer shoe; however this seems to be becoming a trend within the collaboration, with the Pro Silhouette being influenced heavily by indoor Adidas trainer, the Gazelle.
The C.M boost retains a more vintage look than its predecessor, with the tongue logo manifesting the theme and the straightforwardness of the black and white colourways available. The boost technology implemented in the design is the most vigorous in recent history and this, mingled with leather manufacturing, promises the potential for not only a stylish fit, but a comfortable one too.
The C.M Boost drops at the marble floored Palace London Flagship store Wednesday December 16th and are available online from Friday December 18th.
