What is in the Yeezy Powerphase category
We have 5 pairs here, all from the Calabasas line, priced from 999 zł to 3799 zł. The cheapest are the Adidas Yeezy Powerphase Calabasas Core Black and Calabasas Grey, both at 999 zł. The middle of the range is two brown versions, Calabasas Clear Brown and Calabasas Simple Brown, at 1699 zł each. The highest priced is the Calabasas Core White for 3799 zł. The Powerphase is the simplest silhouette in the whole Adidas Yeezy family and the calmest shoe in this line-up, so it goes to people who want Yeezy without a futuristic sole.
A retro trainer, not a tech sneaker
The Powerphase looks like a classic court shoe from a decade ago: a low, flat leather upper, a thin tongue and a rubber sole with no protruding elements. There is no visible cushioning unit or technology that would catch the eye, and that is the point of this model. Against the Yeezy Boost 350 or the Yeezy 700, the Powerphase is quiet: it does not take over an outfit, it rounds it off. Calabasas, which recurs in the title of every pair, is the marking of the model's version, and the next word in the name describes the colourway itself.
How to choose your Powerphase size
The Powerphase has a narrow, flat construction, and the leather upper gives little room across the instep. If you have a wide foot or a high instep, it is safer to take half a size more than in soft, knit models like the Yeezy Foam. The simplest way to a sure choice is to measure your foot length in centimetres and compare it with the size chart, instead of converting a number from another brand. When buying for a child, choose from the Adidas Yeezy shoes for kids category, because youth sizing has its own rules.
What to wear it with
The Powerphase looks best with a straight cut: straight jeans, sweatpants with elastic at the bottom, and short shorts in summer. A low silhouette likes an exposed ankle, so a rolled-up leg or a shorter length works in its favour. On top, a plain hoodie or T-shirt is enough, no fuss, because this shoe needs no support. We check every pair before listing: the box, product code, stitching, glue work and sole. You have 14 days for returns. Products marked "On order" and the other exceptions described in the Terms and Conditions (§ 8 and § 9) are not eligible for return.
Questions about Yeezy Powerphase shoes
How do the Yeezy Powerphase fit, should I take my usual size?
The Powerphase fits narrow and flat, because the leather upper does not stretch in width. With a standard foot, the size that matches the rest of your adidas shoes usually works, and with a wide one it is worth considering half a size more. The surest thing is to measure your foot and compare the result with the size chart.
How does the Powerphase differ from the Yeezy Boost 350?
These are two different ideas for a shoe. The 350 has a knit upper and a thick, visible sole, while the Powerphase is low, leather and built like an old court shoe. That makes the Powerphase visually calmer and easier to fit into everyday clothes.
What does Calabasas in the name mean?
Calabasas is the marking of the Powerphase model's version and that is why it recurs in the title of every pair in this category. The part that follows it, for example Core Black or Clear Brown, describes the colourway.
Are these original pairs?
Yes. Before listing, we check the box, product code, stitching, glue work and sole of every item. We do not sell replicas.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Best on an ongoing basis: a damp cloth, a gentle leather cleaner and a soft brush for the edge of the sole. Do not put them in the washing machine or dry them on a radiator, because the glue and the leather do not tolerate it.
