This holiday season, adidas Basketball pays homage to the basketball meccas of New York City, Chicago and Los Angeles with the "Bright Lights, Big City" Pack. The pack features special colorways of the adizero Crazy Light 2 and Top Ten 2000, each model splashed with amplified colors and reflective materials to stand out.
A throwback to 90s fashion, the Top Ten 2000 comes equipped with exaggerated features like an extended herringbone outsole and a wave-shaped EVA molding design. Giving the shoe a distinct retro feel is the combination of nubuck, elastic and a raised synthetic leather 3-Stripe "wave" and Feet You Wear technology.
Launched earlier this year, the Crazy Light 2 is the lightest basketball shoe ever created at 9.5 ounces. Aerodynamic 3-layer SprintWeb provides vertical and horizontal strength, while an enlarged SprintFrame maximizes support, energy return and motion control.
The "Bright Lights, Big City" Crazy Light 2 and Top Ten 2000 colorways will be available next Wednesday, December 12. You can also purchase both models now at Eastbay.
