    Fear Of God Designer Jerry Lorenzo, Adidas Announce Partnership

    Today, German sneaker company adidas and owner of Fear Of God, Jerry Lorenzo have announced a long term partnership together. Jerry Lorenzo will head the creative and business strategy for adidas basketball division. This partnership will further add on to the Fear Of God company. Accompanying Fear Of God’s Essentials line and its luxury fashion line, this adidas partnership will launch Fear Of God Athletics.

    “adidas and Fear of God have a shared vision for the future of basketball, both on and off the court. We’re excited to revolutionize the industry through a new model that will unfold in the coming years.”

    “Jerry Lorenzo and Fear of God have made a significant global impact on culture and the industry. Jerry is a creative visionary and a true embodiment of today’s entrepreneurial spirit.”

    – Brian Grevy, adidas Executive Board Member for Global Brands.

    This partnership comes as a surprise because Jerry Lorenzo has designed multiple sneaker models with adidas’ rival, Nike. The most successful and most coveted release from the Nike and Fear Of God collaboration was the Nike Air Fear Of God 1. The collection also includes the Air Fear of God Raid, the Air Fear of God Moc, and the retro Skylon 2. Apparently, Lorenzo and Nike could not come to an agreement to continue their collaboration. He told Complex, “As much as I’ve loved my time with Nike and the opportunities that they’ve given us, unless they see the future the same way that we see the future, the cost doesn’t necessarily make sense for us,” Lorenzo said. “We want to be on the basketball court. We want to be on the baseball diamond. We want to be training, running shoes.”

    Jerry Lorenzo’s friend Kanye West is also apart of the adidas brand. According to Forbes, the YEEZY brand is worth over a billion dollars. Jerry Lorenzo was on the design team for the Yeezy Boost 750, Kanye’s first sneaker with adidas.

    Will this Adidas and Fear Of God partnership reach the same success as the YEEZY brand?
