adidas Originals is making a rain boot. Not a sneaker with a water-resistant upper, not a "winterized" Samba. An actual knee-high, all-rubber wellington with the Three Stripes running up the shaft. The adidas Originals Rainboot lands November 20 in Japan through adidas Japan's online shop for ¥16,500, per Fullress. US and Europe release details are TBA for now.
It's a classic wellie shape, updated: waterproof matte rubber, a near-knee shaft with a roomier calf so you aren't wrestling it on, a buckle strap at the top, a white Trefoil on the outer side and a deep-lug sole with another Trefoil stamped underneath. Three colorways: Core Black, Khaki Three and Earth Strata, a muted brown (style codes LC1783, LC1784 and LC1786).
Our take: this is the most "Originals" thing adidas has done in a while, because it's just a good-looking, useful object with stripes on it. The black pair is the one, and it looks like it belongs at a muddy festival or on a London commute. Somewhere out there a Hunter boot is nervously checking its sales numbers.
