The adidas Yeezy 500 High 'Taupe Black' showcases a striking blend of earthy hues, enveloping its boot-like structure. Featuring a convenient no-tie elastic lacing system, the upper is constructed using a rich dark taupe elastane material, adorned with overlays crafted from a mix of suede and leather in various shades of brown. This design doesn't only prioritize style but also ensures durability, thanks to a sturdy rubber wrap that offers both lightweight support and resistance against abrasions. Additionally, the inclusion of reflective piping along the mudguard enhances visibility during low-light conditions. The high-top silhouette is elevated by a meticulously sculpted adiPRENE+ midsole, drawing inspiration from adidas' beloved retro Feet You Wear technology of the '90s.
