Spotted: Adidas kampung


These are quite possibly the elusive Adidas kampung shoes that Mount Kinabalu porters use when climbing up the steep slippery slopes every day.

The whole shoe is made from moulded rubber. The amount of detail is pretty good for a RM5 shoe. There's no fancy shock absorbing midsole, or special rubber compound on the sole. Initial impressions were that the shoe was comfortable, flexible and has good grip. Since it's made of rubber, the whole shoe is waterproof.

SP will be donning these Adidas kampung when we make our trip to Mount Kinabalu this Sunday.
