Pharrell Williams is not just a talent on stage and in the recording studio, but the musician and producer is also respected for his style savvy. Not only does he consistently push the fashion envelope in what he chooses to wear, he is also the mastermind behind labels Billionaire Boys Club and Ice Cream Clothing.
Recently, Adidas and Pharrell partnered up to design and release the Tennis Hu, to much fanfare. The silhouette is a classic design from Adidas, but gets reinvented with upscale touches. The shoes are made with Primeknit uppers that wrap the foot and offer support and ultralight comfort. Pharrell Williams brand signature appears on the outside ankle, on gold or kelly green patches, as well as on the slick taupe imprinted tongue and interior soles.

The kicks were available in two colorways (sunny yellow soles, or entirely white), that are equally understated, stylish, and now SOLD OUT. Too bad, because these are the type of sneaks that would look right at home on the tennis court, but also totally cool out on the street, at a music festival or at work on a casual Thursday.
Maybe they’ll be another round of releases soon? Stay tuned…
