Jerry Lorenzo’s Fear of God Athletics and adidas are preparing to launch the Fear of God II Basketball sneaker, an eagerly awaited release combining high performance with Lorenzo’s minimalist aesthetic. Expected in December 2024, this sneaker represents a bold move into performance-focused footwear for Fear of God, following the success of the lifestyle-oriented I Basketball model.

Arriving in a “Night Brown” colorway, the sneaker features a rich, dark upper contrasting with a lighter midsole, offering a refined yet versatile style. This colorway creates a sleek look suitable for both on-court action and streetwear. The upper is crafted with a breathable mesh base, making it both comfortable and performance-ready. Subtle paneling highlights adidas’ signature Three Stripes, blending brand heritage with modern design.

Functionally, the Fear of God II Basketball sneaker excels in performance. The outsole features a unique radial tread pattern, delivering superior grip on the court, enhancing stability, and allowing for quick, responsive movements. This design is perfect for basketball players who value traction and agility during gameplay.

The adidas Fear of God Athletics II Basketball “Night Brown” is scheduled to release in December 2024. It will be available through Fear of God, select retail partners, and adidas.com. Fans of Lorenzo’s design approach and adidas’ heritage are sure to appreciate this innovative, performance-driven model.
