The above images were leaked earlier this year via Twitter and Instagram. The shoes look plain but classic. Now, the official looks of Addidas Pokemon sneakers have been released, and they seem to be much promising.

Addidas x Pokemon
The shoes are retro 8 bit themed with three stripes of linings. They are white with some plain decorative details having the 8-bit Pikachu and Pokemon Logo on the tongue. The inner lining of shoes features more 8-bit generation one Pokemon characters.
As of now, only Pikachu’s version has been revealed, but we can expect some more starter collabs as well. One could be the Squirtle which was also leaked earlier this year.
Before Pokemon, Addidas has collaborated with Dragon Ball Z and gave some dope shoes out in the market. Same being expecting from this collaboration.
A release date for the shoes is not known yet, but shoes will likely be released sooner as the above images look like an official press release from Addidas.
