adidas slip on Chicago Bulls point guard Derrick Rose ? The reigning and youngest ever NBA MVP might not get the chance to follow up on his spectacular breakout season with the league's latest labor dispute threatening to take games off the regular season slate, but Rose's adi-sig will continue just like LeBron James' latest with a retail release right around
adidas bape the corner.
Derrick Rose is technically an alumnus of the University of Memphis, but one-and-done ballers in the post-Howard era are often more strongly associated with their high schools than the college colors they wore for a single season. Such is the case in Chicago, where hometown hero Derrick Rose led the Simeon Success Academy to back-to-back Illinois state titles in the mid-'00s. This new adidas adiZero Rose 2.5 celebrates Derrick's childhood in Chi-town with a Simeon-derived colorup that's considerably more reserved than the all-yellow Wolverines-inspired adiZero Rose he rocked in last year's All Star Game.
Now that they've got an MVP on their hands, you'd better believe adidas Basketball isn't going to be caught slacking when
pink adidas it comes to the Derrick Rose footwear line. The adidas adiZero Rose 2.0 only recently hit shelves but we've already got an upcoming look at the low version of the adidas adiZero Rose 2.5 which is scheduled for release early next year. This preview shows off a few of the expected Bulls colorways, as well a few blue looks and a nice blacked out joint. This low cut offering seems to lend itself well to casual wear, so hopefully we'll see Rose's influence spill out to the streets a bit more come 2012. Get the full look after the jump.
Remember that colossal contract Derrick Rose just signed to extend his deal with adidas? One of the key factors that makes him such an asset to the Three Stripes is the adiZero line's apparent popularity overseas, especially in China where speculations put Rose's signature shoes on the same level as LeBron and Kobe in terms of popularity. With that being the case, it makes total sense for adidas Basketball to put together a tribute to a revered Chinese figure, in this case soldier of the People's Liberation Army in China Lei Feng . The olive colorway certainly conveys the military background, and the Chinese inscriptions on the back end calling out Lei Feng cement the theme.
Team USA Basketball is already scary as it is, but imagine it with a healthy Derrick Rose and Dwight Howard. That squad could potentially rival '92's Dream Team as the best ever, but
black adidas unfortunately, Rose and Howard, adidas' top-shelf athletes in the sport, will have to miss out on the 2012 road to the Gold, but here's a look at what D-Rose might've worn had he joined his NBA brethren in London; the adidas 773 is a takedown model of the adiZero Rose series, titled 773' as a tribute to Rose's roots in the Chi. We're all pulling for a 100% recovery for the 2011 NBA MVP, so check out the extra shots of this potential Team USA colorway of the adidas
773 and let us know what you think! Photos: kicks-crew.
