Once lost in the sneaker shuffle, the adidas Crazy 3 “Silver Metallic” is staging a shiny comeback in 2025. Originally known as the KB8 III, this retro silhouette didn’t break the internet in its first run—but it sure helped shape the Yeezy 500 years later. Now that’s a plot twist.

Dressed in glossy Silver Metallic, this pair flexes leather and mesh like it just stepped out of a sci-fi movie. Black and grey details contrast the upper, while the Three Stripes slash through the sides like silver lightning bolts. It’s a sneaker that looks like it knows how to do your taxes—efficient and sharp.

Up top, the tongue sports a tonal grey two-piece design that’s cleaner than your favorite playlist. The collar and heel bring in bold black, balancing the metallic flash with some edge. Underfoot, you’ll find the classic adiPRENE+ cushioning paired with a black and grey outsole for grip and comfort.

Set to release in May 2025, the adidas Crazy 3 “Silver Metallic” will retail for $160 USD. Find them at select adidas Basketball retailers and online at adidas.com.

If you missed it in 2016, this is your redemption arc. The Crazy 3 is back—and this time, it’s dressed like the future.
