Adidas Originals launched its newest silhouette, the Prophere, last night at an event in Brooklyn.

The model features a knitted upper that is reinforced with three large nubuck branding Stripes. Its most notable design element is its high-arching midsole which is covered in a molded angular pattern.

Adidas Originals SVP of Global Design, Nic Galway, explained that, “With Prophere we wanted to take a different view of our archive and looked to the unapologetic aesthetic of the ’90s, when the brand experimented with bold silhouettes.”

The retro-inspired model has a sneaker release date of Friday, Dec. 15, and will retail for $120.
