The empowering history of the Adidas Falcon
The lightweight Adidas Falcon surfaced in June 2018, with a design that was able to captivate women’s hearts. The initial Adidas Falcon, which was dressed in a beautiful grey, pink, and black combo, sold like hotcakes. Its '90s aesthetics still plays a compelling role in today’s sneaker landscape.
From its inception, several other colorways popped up, using black and grey as backdrops. One is peppered with blue, green, and pink. Right in time for the summer season, the brand released a ‘Triple White’ colorway with a soft grey suede contrast. Adding a touch of flair to its cloud white sole is a reflective silver detail on the lateral side.
