Adidas is at it again with a crossover into the anime world. Following the success of its extensive seven-sneaker Dragon Ball Z collection last year, it seems the performance footwear giants are ready to dive into another beloved Japanese manga series, Naruto. Earlier leaks online already gave a glimpse of the first Adidas x Naruto sneaker inspired by the character, Sakura. This time, we’re looking at a sneaker themed after Kakashi – the teacher of Team 7 comprising Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura.
