Jerry Lorenzo, the mastermind behind Fear Of God, took his fashion voyage a step further when he entered into a collaboration with adidas in December 2020. The partnership led to the birth of a sub-label under adidas, Fear of God Athletics. Until now, the duo has kept us waiting, teasing us through a captivating fashion show at the Hollywood Bowl and detailed looks from online leakers. While we just got first looks at a running-based silhouette from Fear Of God Athletics x adidas, a low-top iteration of the Fear Of God Athletics x adidas 86 Lo has appeared.
This low-top creation features a retro vibe inspired by adidas' iconic basketball designs like the Rivalry and Forum from the '80s. The shoe flaunts a platform sole and comes dressed in Jerry Lorenzo's signature earth-tone palette. Completely sheathed in sumptuous suede, The 86 Low captures a harmonious appearance with its tonal laces. Branding for adidas finds its place on the heel tab, while a black rectangle on the heel of the sole proudly displays the Fear Of God name. Additional adidas insignias make their presence felt on the lateral heel of the sole. Underneath this aesthetic marvel, a sturdy rubber outsole promises durable comfort.
The Fear Of God Athletics x adidas 86 Lo Talc is set to release on December 3, 2023 through Fear Of God, adidas Confirmed and select retailers online and in-store. Coming in men’s sizing, retail is set at $200.
