The adidas Barium Crazy Explosive 17 is garnering quite the buzz. Think about how far the shoe has come along – since the days of initial Andrew Wiggins PEs being roasted on twitter for looking like wrestling shoes last year – to the sleek and aggressive style of the 2017 version today. Pairs will start arriving at retail next week with a release Raf down for July 27th for $150, but the three stripes are already giving some of their premier athletes PEs throughout summer.
After Kristaps Porzingis showed off his Latvia-themed PE, WNBA superstar Candace Parker will debut a brand new Crazy Explosive 17 this Saturday at the WNBA All-Star Game in Seattle. Candace won her first WNBA championship last year and was named Finals MVP, and was even given her third “Best WNBA Player” award at the ESPNYS. The exclusive features a fiery red forged Primeknit buy with a contrasting yellow TPU cage on the midsole. Check out more detailed shots below.
