Yes, the carpet in that airport is both iconic and beloved. Don’t believe me? Here’s a mascot made out of that carpet:

— Keith Palau (@kpduck) May 20, 2015 Very cool. Here are the actual details on the shoes and where you can get your own, via adidas:
The PDX carpet pattern is printed across the shoe’s teal upper while the full-length adiprene+ midsole compliments a purple tonal snakeskin print on the heel, toecap and TECHFIT booty. The purple laces feature flecks of grey and “DAME” is printed on the right tongue while “#PDXCARPET” is printed on the left.
Fans can grab their own D Lillard 1 PDX Carpet edition ($125) on May 23 beginning at 10 a.m. PT at Foot Locker Washington Square (Portland) Eastbay and adidas.com.
