There is a tendency at the moment to connect any all-red sneaker to a certain Kanye West shoe.
This adidas SL Loop deserves a pass though. If anything the shoe looks more like Big Seans adidas Pro Model 'Detroit Player', a collab that actually showed up well before the Red October did. Like those Pro Models, this pair also has a reptilian texture, something that the 'Red October' skipped out on (unlike other Yeezy 2 releases). As has been the case with almost all of the SL Loop pairs to date, this one is refreshingly pedestrian in its distribution–it's available now straight from adidas.
