Other footwear options, such as the mules and slides, took a backseat to allow the sneakers to bask in their high fashion glory. However, as the heat turns up and more brands have started to release weather-appropriate slip-ons, we can&#8217;t help but look towards the adidas x Gucci GG Platform Sandals as the new summer staple.<\/p>\n<p>Originally released in loud yellow, red and green colorways, the latest expansion to the streetwear fusion sees a new cobalt blue takeover on these GG monogram slides. These bold colors and rubber platforms are a direct call back to the vibrant 70s \u2014 a direction that governs this entire adidas x Gucci collaboration under creative director Alessandro Michele&#8217;s renowned retro touch.<\/p>\n<p>adidas&#8217; participation is prominently signalled via the Trefoil leather patch on the low platform&#8217;s velcro-adjusted strap. Cotton sponge forms the insole, giving a cushioned fit that makes walking on clouds a reality. As part of Gucci&#8217;s efforts towards sustainability, white Demetra trim \u2014 crafted from animal-free raw materials and bio-based sources \u2014 form the rubber details.<\/p>\n<p>The adidas x Gucci GG Platform Sandals are available on the Gucci site and retails for US$620. The expanded collection also sees new apparel and accessories that are a seamless blend of retro elements, be it through colors or specific old school cuts, and modern sportswear.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/snkrdunk_int\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-22285 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy.webp\" alt=\"Magazine-Bottom-Banner\" width=\"970\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy.webp 970w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-300x93.webp 300w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-768x238.webp 768w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-282x87.webp 282w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 970px) 100vw, 970px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Channel the 70&#8217;s aesthetic with these adidas x Gucci GG Platform Sandals. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":23718,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,2,21,18,19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23600","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-adidas","category-brands","category-calendar","category-latest-news","category-releases"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23600"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23600"}],"version-history":[{"count":22,"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23600\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23922,"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23600\/revisions\/23922"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23718"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23600"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23600"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23600"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
