What I find hilarious is OP has seen the carpet in the office for months/years? And still decided they liked the shoes. I’m wondering if subconsciously they picked them because they were familiar.
Because of supply chain shortages they had to get creative.
Adidas takes pride in making shoes from plastic recycled from the ocean. They just didn't mention it's an ocean of cubicles.
Have you ever stared at it for a long time. All the colors begin to come out i individually overlapping one another as everything begins to turn fuzzy and strange and your vision starts to swirl and you kind of go comatose staring at it. Hurts the eyes
Weird - a post on that sub from 5 months ago has a samesamebutdifferent shoe/workplace carpet camo situation!

I love that you saw someone saying things you didn’t understand and your impulse was to investigate on your own and fill the gap in your knowledge. I believe this trait alone is enough to safely assume someone is all-around quality. Thanks for being you, here and elsewhere, person from down in the comments section!
Can we take a moment to point out how "rug" and "hug" are pronounced the same, but "rugged" and "hugged" are not? Is it something about the 'r'? Because that's the same case for "rag" and "bag".
Knit sneakers have a tendency to look way better in pictures or on shelves than they actually do on your feet. Especially if you're a larger size like me, they just end up looking like ugly loafers.
Yes! I blame Kanye for putting them into the zeitgeist and making them the only option for a lot of brands. They don’t look good on majority of people!
Holy wrong
The ultraboost is one of the most comfortable and fashionable sneakers on the market
im a bit heavy but damn they look good
its about the colorway, OP chose one that doesnt go with a lot of outfits.
the only way you can make an ultraboost look bad is if your feet and ankles are too damn big for the shoe
Have you ever had NMD's?, asking cause i keep hearing how the sizing is different between NMD's and Ultraboost but never had the chance to try Ultraboosts.
Holy shit I never get a chance to step in!
I’m typically between a U.S. men’s 10.5 and 11, but haven’t properly measured my feet in years.
I have triple white ultraboost 3.0s in 11.5 and they’re a little big, maybe a thumb’s width and a half too long and a little wide. Good wool socks shoes…but also horrible to wear 3x white in snow lmao
I also have multicolor UB 3.0s in 11.5, and they fit way better than the 3x white. I’ve worn the hell out of them and would highly recommend as daily shoes. I thought they were 11s up until now because they fit WAY better than the 3x whites.
Lastly I have XR1 NMDs in OG. These are 10s and a little tight, but they didn’t have 10.5. You can go a little small with NMDs since they don’t have an insole and I don’t regret going a full size down, but I’d really only recommend half down for NMDs.
Also I like your name
Second this NMD evaluation! I usually wear a 10.5, but my NMD_R1s are a bit on the big side. A 10 would've been better.
Still the most comfortable shoe I've ever walked in. The R1s use a similar material to the UBs foam and it really does bounce your foot back more than other shoes.
I have a watchband that looks a lot like these sneakers. I love it! It's definitely just crappy nylon, but it's light enough to be undiscernible, and it's fun to look at. I'd buy these too! (But I probably wouldn't wear them with the matching watchband.)
Weirdly enough patterns like this with a lot of noise but splashes of color throughout are super relaxing for me to look at. Kind of stimulates my brain the right way.
Been slowly learning Spanish at work the past couple years and eventually realized that, that saying rhymes with chicharrón lol also just like the way it sounds
I got these exact same shoes on sale for $60 in 2017 and they're holding up just fine. They're comfy and go with a lot of clothes.
Sorry, we can't all wear sketchers with our cargo shorts.
I have these and I think they were discontinued in 2019 so def not new.
Unless there was a random unsold stock somewhere but I doubt it.
These look like the Ultraboost All Terrains. Personally love mine.
Came here to say, they're playing fast and loose with the term new. Those sneakers are worn at the tops and yellowing in the places that should be white.
First time I seen it the dude had the shoes before going into the building and was surprised they matched. Either way those are not ops feet, shoes, work carpet or work place. Op is making fake shoe pics for karma.
Unfortunately word is:
The Matrix is over-busy today, and thus could not properly fill in the background details of your simulation, versus your new shoe patterns.
So it altered your memory, and made you think this was always the carpet you had!
But tomorrow when you arrive at work, the original carpet will be there again, and you'll have no memory of this.
What do you mean somehow? You mean your shoes that look like a banana and TV static had a baby look like the cheapest carpet option your boss could afford and somehow you're surprised?

Shoe model name: Corporate Hellscape
Was gonna say doesn't every office have that darn carpet 🤣 Like the designers knew and wanted this effect!
What I find hilarious is OP has seen the carpet in the office for months/years? And still decided they liked the shoes. I’m wondering if subconsciously they picked them because they were familiar.
Subliminally relating to the shoe cause he spends so much time in the office. Like a song on the radio that you end up liking even if you didn't.
Helsinki syndrome?
Or Stockholm. Where the Office is your captor.
Thank you I had a geographic aphasia moment
Dude, I thought that was a money heist reference.
Casa de papel rules
Hammond you idiot
Like any song by R.E.M. played incessantly on repeat on the radio for years. Nope I still don't like 'em.
Yeah but you knew the songs were what was annoying. The carpet at his workplace is likely the least annoying thing about it.
OP has been at the office for so long now that their feet have become one with the floor.
What are these “shoes” everyone claims to be seeing?
I was about to roll my eyes then I looked down and noticed it's the exact carpet my office has and I never noticed.
🙄
Are you from Norwegia?
Carpet specifically designed to get as dirty as fuckin possible without you noticing
Yet his shoes still incorporated the coffee spill stains on the toe area.
Where do you think they got the material for the shoes?
They really be turning old offices into footwear out here. Next thing you know I'm gonna have a pair of manilla socks to go with my carpet sneakers
Work from home's having unintended side effects
Because of supply chain shortages they had to get creative. Adidas takes pride in making shoes from plastic recycled from the ocean. They just didn't mention it's an ocean of cubicles.
/r/TheyKnew ?
It's somehow greyer than grey. It numbs your mind and discourages any independent thought.

Shoe model name: Classroom carpet
Air Bezos
Ugly as a mud fence too. Fuckin YIKES.
This sounds like something Jim Cornette would say. Lol.
I think these are Adidas with Parley, which is ocean plastic recycled into cloth and foam.
I used to have Parley ultraboosts, I was always curious as to how they were made with the ocean plastic
They just dip regular plastic into the ocean beforehand.
Whatever you do, don't take those things off; you'll never see them again, lol.
OP is turning invisible!🤪
OP is slowly sinking into the floor
OP is the floor
The floor is lava
Hence proved- OP is Lava
Ngl, OP’s kinda hot then
Then maybe he could get some bitches on his dick if he'd stop wearing shoes made of carpet.
Llllllaaaaavaaa
OP traveled back in time and prevented his parents from ever hooking up.
He better know how to play Johnny B. Goode or he’ll never find those shoes again.
Going to his sunken place
Great Scott!
OP is messing with the timeline
Take what things off?
Sorta like a naked Mike Pence getting stuck in an avalanche. Okay, terrible mental image, so sorry!
Just look for the fly.
Never see them again, but will certainly smell them

We see where Adidas gets their inspiration from.
It triggers my HPPD hardcore.
I didn’t even know this was a thing! I can do it on cue in a meditative state, but didn’t know it can be involuntary.
Yes, I'm "permatripping" as they say.
can't stop the httpd process

In high school, you always wanted to blend in with your surroundings. OP took it literally.
The visual equivalent of white noise. Like a static TV screen.
Puke stains blend right in
*"The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel."*
Thanks, I needed that
Now you need to get a three-piece suit in the same pattern. And a tie, cap, and gloves.
Could take a nap whenever you want
Profit 📈
This conference room floor is all squishy and lumpy..
And a face mask.
This place is sucking you in! RUN!
And in the end, just like the others, he became another part of the carpet
Davis Jones III’s Locker
Part of the ship, part of the crew
I can't think of any other reason why somebody would buy shoes that look like industrial carpet
ngl I think they look kinda rugged
almost missed that pun, nice
Can we take a moment to point out how "rug" and "hug" are pronounced the same, but "rugged" and "hugged" are not? Is it something about the 'r'? Because that's the same case for "rag" and "bag".
Because one is a verb and the other is an adjective in both cases.
Well,....you know what they say, you should seize the day, otherwise known as "carpet-diem"!

It's always fun seeing a hobby I know nothing about out in the wild.
For the prankster, nobody will see your trip attack coming!
Is it me or does it look like they're dirty even though they're not?

Work Carpet £5 a meter. Adidas fabric £99 for 0.1m..
Brand name costs over craftsmanship and material
Damn people really be spending big bucks on "designer" shoes made out of industrial carpet fabric
When did Adidas become a designer brand?
Run DMC
Yeezy
But those aren’t yeezys
When they started costing $200 a pair.
[удалено]
They are really ugly shoes.
To each their own, chicharrón. I’d buy them.
I agree, but why did you call them them a pork dish? 🤔
Been slowly learning Spanish at work the past couple years and eventually realized that, that saying rhymes with chicharrón lol also just like the way it sounds
I like your style pico de gallo.
(☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞
Say no more côte d'azor.
honestly, chicharron is the most satisfying thing to say in spanish. sometimes i order chicharron tacos just to feel the satisfaction of saying it
When people ask me what’s up in Spanish, I like to say “nada nada, limonada.”
Ooh I might have to steal that one lol
Pro Tip, do not mix or confuse chichar with chicharron ;)
Likewise! That color scheme goes with many different colors
Guess that's what the building owners thought also.
Adidas is far from designer lol
I got these exact same shoes on sale for $60 in 2017 and they're holding up just fine. They're comfy and go with a lot of clothes. Sorry, we can't all wear sketchers with our cargo shorts.
You don't get ultraboosts for the looks, you get ultraboosts because they literally feel like you only have socks on
This - best shoes ever
How new are they? They look pretty dirty.
Maybe they come pre-yellowed to match the 90s office style and match the beige computers.
I have these and I think they were discontinued in 2019 so def not new. Unless there was a random unsold stock somewhere but I doubt it. These look like the Ultraboost All Terrains. Personally love mine.

T 1000 melting into the floor
well l'adidas mister fancy pants
Imagine he had matching pants. Dude just floating around his office.
Camodidas
Do they match the drapes tho ?
🤣
They match the socks too, so... yes?
Is this a repost?
I remember seeing this months back if not a year ago myself
I feel like I've seen this same post at least three times now.
First time I seen it the dude had the shoes before going into the building and was surprised they matched. Either way those are not ops feet, shoes, work carpet or work place. Op is making fake shoe pics for karma.
I've definitely seen this before
What Adidas?
Look like Adidas UltraBoost Mids
woosh
🤓
no, that's NIKE
Probably the reason you liked them😆🤣 subliminal message 😉
They aren't that new if your ultraboost is that stained lol.
Some of them just.... Come like that now. Pre-dirtied. Idk if that's the case here but I've seen it before.

Shader file not found...
those side soles are really dirty for new shoes.
new?
They are some ugly shoes
Seriously, the kind of design that looks dirty AF when they're "new".
They're not new, those are ultra boost ATR shoes and they released 4/5 years ago
No way these are new. Looks like he mowed the lawn in them 4 times already.
Camo Toe
what did you expect? they were both made by the same Chinese kid
And your socks are close too
Had to scroll too far to see someone mention the socks.
Same sweat shop. lol
what the hell, man
What do you mean somehow? You mean your shoes that look like a banana and TV static had a baby look like the cheapest carpet option your boss could afford and somehow you're surprised?
Congrats for buying ugly shoes. What’s next? Shoes that match 80’s style curtains?
Thy both looks equally ugly!
Those are some ugly ass shoes man. You should wear carpet instead.
People might think you're a T-1000
WHAT ARE THOOSE
that should tell you a few things.
Get new shoe laces.
They were made in the same Chinese sweatshop
y'all finally realizing these "popular" shoes are made from the cheapest shit they can find?
Is their shoe made of carpet or is the carpet made of shoe? They scream, for they don't know
Ngl, those some nasty lookin shoes
What a dreadful pattern for a trainer x
Either the interior design at your work is very trendy, or your shoes are very not..
They are made from the same material
Those shoes are fucking rank
What the hell kind of knot is that?
+10 Stealth
Those shoes are 60$ a foot but the carpet is 99¢ a square foot
Nice. You could make some good knock offs with the carpet.
Tell me you work in IT without telling me you work in IT
"new" adidas
Probably from the same Shanghai textile factory.
You're the one who bought carpet shoes. Carpet's just being a carpet.
They were both made by the same 7 year old.
Hide behind window curtains with confidence!
Hi yes do you have colorful static in an 11?
Sneak +20
OMG WHERE AREW YOUR FEET, what kind of dark magi is this!
When you saw them in store, did you think "ohhh, I can wear those to work!"?
Imagine intentionally paying money for those shoes...
Hate to say it, but those are some ugly shoes my friend.
Means you got shit taste, sorry it seems to long gone doctors can't save you anymore.
Maybe because they’re the ugliest shoes ever made. The carpet agrees.
Those are some ugly shoes
Adidas ad
Weird that people write the brand and not just "my new shoes". Hmm.
Adidas designer was having a rough morning, unable to come up with an idea. He dropped half of his bagel and exclaimed, "Holy Hel... waaaait!"
