Adidas created a team of twelve women designers to design a one-of-a-kind ultra-boost X sneaker for each U.S. state.
The sneakers were sold in an online auction on July 11. All of the proceeds went to the Women Win, a charity devoted to advancing women’s leadership.
Adidas commissioned shoes to be made to represent each state. Unsure if I should be honored or insulted by the New Jersey shoe. pic.twitter.com/8vc6Y09E1d

These shoes look kinda goofy. They look too animated to be real. I love how the designers highlight every state’s best known imagery. Georgia’s shoe is one big peach. It’s actually not bad…would I wear it? Imma pass.

I do love the cause and the opportunity for women to express themselves.
