The adidas Yeezy 500 ‘Taupe Light’ steps out in an understated monochromatic colorway that allows the sneaker’s premium construction to come to the fore. Open mesh makes up the majority of the upper, fortified with cow suede and leather overlays throughout. Reflective piping around the eyelets provides a hi-vis element, while a rubber midfoot wrap offers enhanced durability. The layered build is supported by an adiPRENE+ midsole inspired by Kobe Bryant’s third signature shoe, the adidas KB8 3.
