Third And Final Xbox 20th Anniversary Shoes Unveiled, Sold Out Immediately

Yesterday saw the unveiling of the final Xbox 20th Anniversary shoe. As any sneakerhead will know, they quickly sold out. 

Although the Adidas Forum Tech Boost sneaker was priced at $140, it sold quickly. But, there are rumors that more will be available. The official Adidas website allows you to sign up for emails about future drop notifications. Of course, it could just be referencing any incoming future drops, but we’re hoping it means more of these Boosts are on the way because they look great. 

As you can see above, they’re heavily inspired by the main talking points of Xbox – a sleek black color, highlights of translucent green, and of course, the classic Xbox logo. Xbox says these shoes specifically were inspired by the Xbox Series X, which makes sense – the first Xbox x Adidas collaboration highlighted the original Xbox design. Second drop inspired by Xbox 360. 

“The design is a nod to the Xbox Series X, a platform to experience 20 years of Xbox while also pushing technology to deliver the ultimate gaming experience,” an Xbox Wire post about the sneakers reads. “Draped in black netting against a green liner, the inside of the shoe resembles the iconic green vents of the Xbox Series X. The sneaker also includes our modern Xbox sphere logo with subtle highlights to represent our console power button and the elegant style of the Xbox Elite Wireless Controler.” 

It also has a translucent sole with a transparent heel that Xbox states pulls straight from the latest controller. Looking at the sole, you’ll find the Xbox 20th Anniversary logo tucked inside the shoe, too. 

Yesterday’s shoes were available for purchase at $140 and quickly sold out. Some shoes sell for up to $200 online. Shoes are expected to go up in price over the next few weeks, and that is what I know. Adidas will hopefully release additional pairs to ensure that those who are interested can save on resale. 

As you await the release of more Adidas sneakers, take a look back at the Xbox 360-inspired shoes and first Xbox-themed sneakers that were revealed in October. These Adidas x Guardians of the Galaxy sneakers were just unveiled.
