Authentic storytelling is at the heart of Hebru Brantley’s work, which is why Brantley has continued to inspire and galvanise his audience for over a decade. Brantley’s characters Frogboy and Rocket were created to express a desire for freedom, a stance in solidarity and a determination to overcome.
This collective spirit to redefine what a protagonist looks like in our world is the very inspiration for the characters that Brantley creates. They inspired us to collaborate on a collection that will stand firmly in the zeitgeist and ground us in the confidence, agency and power that has always reflected the culture that inspired it.
The esteemed artist uses the adidas Forum High and adidas Forum Low as his muses, bringing them to life with tongue details featuring his Frogboy and Rocket characters to dimensionalize his storytelling of Black heroes and futurism. The shoes are executed in tones from Brantley’s signature color palette, and also feature contrast lacing, hand-drawn rear quarter trefoil branding and illustrated sock liners.
Launching on July 14th, 2022, the adidas Forum Low Hebru Brantley & adidas Forum High Hebru Brantley shoes are available globally through adidas.com, CONFIRMED, and select retailers.
