First seen last century, adidas is reissuing the Intimidation Low and bringing back one of the original colorways, Wonder Aluminium Yellow, blending retro charm with modern updates. Also expected to be released alongside a Core White Team Royal Blue iteration, this completes the revival for the shoe after New Jersey-based Packer dropped their collaborative take last December. Launched in 1999 as a signature shoe of former NFL wide receiver and current ESPN host Keyshawn Johnson, the distinct aesthetic of the sneaker is iconic to those of a specific era.
This adidas Intimidation Low has an upper base crafted with wonder aluminum close-knit mesh, delivering a lightweight yet durable feel. It is complemented by a more muted spacer mesh on the tongue and crisp white mesh for the lining, offering a clean, balanced look. Striking contrasts are introduced through the yellow Three Stripes branding, which stands out vibrantly against the neutral base.
Craig Bell happily talks about sneakers or as he calls them "trainers" every day of the year. An avid Bradford City fan, he's also a big supporter of the Philadelphia Eagles. He will forever profess that Cricket is better than Baseball and that Rugby League is better then Rugby Union. Among his many hot takes, he believes the adidas ZX range is the pinnacle of sneaker design.
