There's no doubt the James Bond franchise has inspired many a fashionista over the decades. Now, Adidas has unveiled a collection of sneakers that pay homage to the spy’s signature tuxedoes.
In honor of the release of the 25th Bond film No Time To Die next month, you too can snag 007 footwear.
Starting this week, Adidas will be releasing five UltraBoost designs. Three of the shoes in the collection are UltraBoost 20’s, inspired by Bond’s array of tuxedo looks.

While it may look similar to a regular all-black UltraBoost at first glance, the heel of the shoes come with a ‘007’ insignia, and the insole features a backdrop of Cuba, paying homage to one of the scenes in the movie. The franchise’s well-known gun logo also appears on the tongue of the sneaker, as per Input.

Other colorways for the UltraBoost 20 include a white, black, and gray pair with an icon of a seven-armed octopus for long-time villain Spectre. Fans of new baddie Safin can opt for the pair with a gray upper and white cage, which was inspired by the villain’s porcelain mask.

Additionally, pairs of white UltraBoost SUMMER.RDY and UltraBoost DNA complete the collection. The latter, inspired by the white tuxedo, will be the first to release, with the same icons on the sneaker’s tongue and heel, as well as the title card from each movie printed on the insole.
The Bond shoes are set to launch on September 24 on Adidas’ site, and will retail for US$200. Apart from the shoes, a small collection of tracksuits and T-shirts will also be on sale to complete your 007 outfit.
