Jerry Lorenzo took his time in crafting his debut collection with adidas, establishing the Fear of God Athletics line as the third pillar in his FOG family after a three-year wait. Since its inaugural retail launch in December 2023 and small capsules of clothing drops over the past two months, the partnership has captivated the fashion and sneaker communities with its blend of Lorenzo's visionary design and adidas' athletic heritage. Following detailed looks at the Fear of God Athletics 1 model in Clay, the adidas Fear of God Athletics Los Angeles Runner has appeared in the same color palette.
The Los Angeles Runner Clay is meticulously crafted, featuring premium construction that combines luxury and athletic functionality. A tonal clay hue dominates the sneaker's upper, offering a subdued yet striking visual appeal. Suede accents are strategically placed on the mudguard, vamp, eyestays, and Three Stripes branding, adding a touch of elegance and texture.
The base layer of ripstop nylon ensures durability and breathability, making the sneaker as practical as it is stylish. The padded tongue, also adorned in suede, houses a tonal lace set secured by a lace lock that bears Lorenzo's reinterpretation of the iconic Three Stripes. Fear of God branding is subtly placed on a black bar at the heel, signifying the collaboration's premium positioning. The design has a chunky foam midsole and a molded cupsole, while a grooved rubber outsole rests below.
The adidas Fear of God Athletics Los Angeles Runner Clay is slated to release on March 3, 2024, through adidas, Fear of God, and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $170.
