There are cool kicks, and then there are the really cool kicks!

When you are looking for a shoe that's going to bring a wow-factor appeal, then you won't go wrong with this one...

Introducing the Yeezy Boost 700 Wave Runner from Adidas!

The first colorway of the Adidas Yeezy Boost 700 sneaker debuted in November of 2017, after the public got a peek of this kick at the Yeezy Season 5 runway show that took place earlier that year.

Many people believe that the Yeezy Boost 700 was designed to imitate what has been popularly known as the "Dad Trend."

As sneakers and other forms of footwear were moving into a place of comfort over fashion, designers began making shoes that had wider uppers and chunkier soles with substantially more padding than the industry had seen in the past.

 

What Is the "Dad Trend?"

Unlike what the name implies, the "dad trend" is not just for men with kids.

Whereas sneakers before this new look had prioritized minimalism and subtle aesthetic lines, the "dad trend" shoes came from a totally different perspective.

Made to be large and loud, these shoes make a big statement. They demand to be taken seriously as an accessory and give the person wearing them a level of comfort that is not usually seen in footwear outside of gym shoes and sneakers.

And with their bright colors and chunky sole, a "dad trend" shoe is not one that is going to easily be missed.

Kanye West and His Adidas Yeezy Boost 700 Wave Runner

Like the "dad trend" sneakers, Kanye West has never been someone who shies away from being bold and in the limelight.

From his music to his fashion lines, West is brazen and unapologetic. So, it makes sense that he would have been one of the industry leaders when it came to this new type of big and chunky shoe.

But even though the "dad trend" sneaker may be the "in" thing to be wearing right now, Kanye West takes it a step further with the Yeezy Boost 700.

As a fashion designer, West is always trying to stay ahead of the latest trend.

But when it comes to his Yeezy footwear line, he is also concerned with making sure his products don't just deliver from an aesthetic sense...he demands that they be comfortable as well.

And this is where the Yeezy Boost 700 truly shines!

First hitting the market in 2017, the original Adidas Yeezy Boost 700 had a super soft plush layered upper, and an uber-thick midsole that reminded some critics of a pair of orthotic shoes.

Well, in true Kanye West fashion, he took that trend and ran with it, placing an orthotic-style inner sole into the base to give more arch support, and a thick pair of laces that would be easier for someone with arthritic hands to tie.

Eventually, even though the shoe was selling, West decided to streamline the style a bit, realizing that perhaps the "dad trend" was being taken a bit too far.

Thus, the Adidas Yeezy Boost 700 began to evolve a bit over time, taking on a more aesthetically pleasing look while never compromising the comfort that this shoe was made for.

Constructing the Adidas Yeezy Boost 700 Wave Runner

As one of the most popular Yeezy Boost 700 sneakers sold to date, the Wave Runner delivers it all: creative color choices, high quality materials and comfort that is second to none.

The Yeezy Boost 700 Wave Runner starts with an attractive mesh upper in Solid Grey, which makes this shoe not only easy to clean, but gives some breathability to a sneaker that will most likely often be used in climates and for activities that make it ideal to have a breathable shoe.

There is also some interesting design choices that includes more mesh in a rich teal that subtly peeks out between a smooth solid grey and black suede overlay that wraps around the teal and continues back to the heel.

The Yeezy Boost 700 Wave Runner is then accented by a pair of unique neon laces that introduce some vibrancy to the otherwise dark color scheme of this shoe.

Under it all, the Adidas Yeezy Boost 700 Wave Runner boasts a colorful midsole with pipings of orange popping out in two places on both sides of each shoe.

That colorful midsole also houses the trademark Boost cushioning, reminding the wearer that this shoe is just as much about comfort as it is about creativity and style.

Even further proof of Kanye's commitment to superior comfort and durability is the rugged traction grips on the dark sole of the shoe.
