ORIGINAL STORY:
Earlier this month, Jerry Lorenzo confirmed the end of his Fear of God x adidas partnership soon, while also announcing the final release in their collaboration, the Basketball III. Today, a new “Off-White” pair has surfaced, coming soon.
After five years of working together and only three batches of performance sneakers, Fear of God and adidas are parting ways. FoG founder and designer Jerry Lorenzo confirmed the split earlier this month while appearing on a Complex podcast, talking about his experience working with the Three Stripes and their different approaches to footwear projects. At the same time, Lorenzo also confirmed that the third iteration of their performance footwear, Basketball III, would be the final chapter in their relationship, getting a release in Spring 2026. Details about the shoe’s launch are sparse, but a second colorway of the low-top model has emerged in detailed photos this week. This pair was first see on Jerry’s feet at a Bulls game in Chicago, but is apparently now being seeded to influencers. The photos show off the shoe in an off-white tone, and give a detailed look at the embroidered Three Stripes and exposed Boost cushioned midsole.
FEAR OF GOD X ADIDAS BASKETBALL III LOW “OFF-WHITE” RELEASE INFORMATION
There is currently no information regarding when Fear of God and adidas will release the final chapter in the Athletics saga, but we expect the project to land in Spring 2026. Capping things off with the Basketball III, the model has so far only been seen in the low-top iteration in two colors, dark grey and off-white. Pairs will likely be available from both partners as well as select retailers, and pricing is expected to come in around $180.
