adidas and Song for Mute’s Country OG sneaker is giving new meaning to the term GOAT.
SFTM’s take on the adidas Country OG sneaker is a much-hyped silhouette made magnificent with mohair (which comes from the hair of Angora goats). A true graduate of the school of Wales Bonner.
No, seriously, Bonner has also put her own texturally-wonderful spin on the adidas Country sneaker, which feels like a forebear to SFTM’s Country collab.
See, cozy vibes are not just for knit sweaters and $400 Acne Studios scarves — it’s also for extremely fly sneakers.
The SFTM Country OG sneaker has a mohair body with suede accents along the base and at the Three Stripes. The heel counter is patent leather, offering some glossy contrast.
Basically, the SFTM x adidas’ Country OG sneaker, available online for $140 apiece, is the holy trinity of fabrics in one dripped-out package.
As fly as it is though, the Country OG is not reinventing the wheel here.
In fact, leveraging the power of textural contrast to transport a pair of sneakers from everyday stomper to a grail-level cop is the name of the game these days.
Take, for example, Wales Bonner x adidas “Pony Leo” Samba, now reselling to the tune of $1,656 (and higher!) compared to its $170 retail price. Crazy.
Puma’s Fenty Avanti “Pony Hair” sneaker took a similarly hairy approach, folding in the biggest trend in animal print as well.
The SFTM Country OG didn’t just study its predecessors — it passed the sneaker world’s stylistic exam with flying colors.
