adidas is preparing to launch the most promising collection of Foritude Mid’s we’ve seen since the introduction of the hiking boot-inspired sneaker earlier this year. Known as the Neon Pack, and available in black/neon, grey/red and navy/orange, the Fortitude Mid’s offer traditional sneaker styling infused with characteristic you’d see on a pair of boots such as d-ring eyelets with thick bulky laces, and a padded reinforced ankle collar. The sole unit also has a rugged look to it and the materials, well those are just as durable too. From the streets to the woods, the Fortitude Mid fits the bill for any sort of terrain and provides a fresh style to boot (no pun intended).
