You wouldn’t know it by looking at them, but these are actually one of the earliest adidas productions from the outrageous designer, Jeremy Scott, proven only by his name tucked away on the sockliner.

Jeremy Scott is admittedly not one of our favorite designers, especially with the ruckus surrounding the Santa Cruz story as of late (circa 2013), however what he did with the Artillery Hi silhouette is pretty lovely.

The comfort and fit of this pair is just ridiculous. Super padded, thick and chunky, they even smelled like a pair of little alien foot couches right out of the ObyO (Originals by Originals) box. Part of the same production line in 2008, Jeremy also prepared a more puke-colored pair that got a lot of hype but probably less actually longevity when it comes to actually wearing them, and you’ll see why when we drop an article featuring those as well.

Colorways aside, their technology is the same as the typical Torsion-enhanced Artillery Hi: soft cell, heel pivot point, and Torsion center outsoles. The foamy soft cell midsole sits above the rubber outsole providing a comfort and padding that goes unmatched.

Design-wise they feature a nice snakeskin mixed with leather. Wonderful three stripes made of some smooth plastic patterning, and the upper eyelets are fantastically done up with a final clip for stray lace tips. The over-the-laces lock strap is not one we’re huge fans of, but we can live with it on this pair, especially when one considers Jeremy’s typical trainer attachments.

Contribute hype to eatmoreshoes

Here at eatmoreshoes we love our kicks, but we also open our minds to the greater cultural world that surrounds and engulfs the sneaker scenes around the world. Music, arts, events, films, performance, fashion, food, and people are at the heart of what is so good about lush leather and sweet suede strapped to your ankles with soft vintage laces, fats or thins, colored or bleached. We truly believe it’s the diversity of the scenes that make things stay exciting and keep up momentum year after year.

For this reason we see ‘hype’ as something that should cover more than just the most recent shoe releases or the most awaited collaborations between boutiques and brands. We think an album debut party or an avantgarde street performance could be ‘hype’. We think independent zine issues and self-built, DIY, underground gallery spaces are worthy of the title ‘hype’.

How to contribute

Currently eatmoreshoes is open to covering and promoting any creative individuals who love sneakers and find themselves (and their work) somehow relative to the various shoe scenes around the globe. If this is you – a creative person who loves their kicks and needs to get the word out about their personal and/or professional work – then please shoot us an email at info@eatmoreshoes.com

We look forward to hearing from you!

Welcome to eatmoreshoes, an online magazine specifically geared towards the adidas and PUMA brands.

The idea behind our magazine is relatively simple: we’re creating a site that showcases both the ‘history’ and the ‘hype’ of the worldwide sneaker culture without being elitist or trying to dictate to our readers. We cover various aspects of this culture by providing archives of adidas and PUMA shoes and clothing, hunting down and interviewing collectors, searching out the best stores we can find, and reporting on the hype.

As a reader you’re already part of the magazine and we’re here to showcase you and whatever you do, whether that be collecting, selling, or otherwise revolving around shoes.

So buckle up and enjoy the ride.
