crooked-tongues-x-adidas-oktoberfest-munchen

To commemorate this year’s Oktoberfest, perennial sneaker-site favorites Crooked Tongues hooked up with adidas on the aptly chosen 70’s indoor training shoe, the München. The terrace favorite among the English alongside the ironic name make for a smart choice.
