adidas Fear of God Athletics I BasketballCarbon Sesame

Product Description

The adidas Fear of God Athletics I Basketball Carbon Sesame is part of an ongoing collaboration between adidas and the Los Angeles-based apparel label Fear of God.

Created by Jerry Lorenzo, this hybrid basketball shoe features a minimalist aesthetic and the designer’s signature muted tones. For example, the knit upper and neoprene collar come in Carbon, while the toecap and exaggerated rubber outsole feature off-white Sesame. Paying tribute to adidas’ legacy, the side panels display the 3-Stripes logo made with plastic-like material. Instead of serving as a simple logo, the 3-Stripes form a lace cage that houses durable Carbon laces.

Something our experts like about this sneaker is the lack of overt branding. For example, other than the 3-Stripes logo, the only branding is a small patch on the heel that reads ‘fear of god.’ The adidas Fear of God Athletics I Basketball Carbon Sesame was released on December 3rd, 2023, and retailed at $250.
