adidas YZY QNTM BSKTBL (Performance Basketball Model)

adidas Yeezy QNTM BSKTBL Frozen Blue

Before COVID cancelled all events, adidas Yeezy rolled out the red carpet for the YZY QNTM during All-Star Weekend. Offered in tanks, the brand new flagship was given out to droves of fans, some even going as far to trade the pairs right on their feet. And now, almost exactly a year thereafter, the silhouette is far more accessible, its latest colorway, the “Frozen Blue,” soon to be offered in its BSKTBL variant tomorrow. Design-wise, the BSKTBL deviates little from its lifestyle counterpart. Though reinforced further at certain points — specifically, the forefoot and collar — the aesthetic is unchanged, its profile dressed with a signature striped pattern. Here, for its “Frozen Blue” iteration, the motif dyes a saturated cool tone, standing out against the neutrals that dress the lace unit, ankle, and tooling.
