Shortly after receiving an official statement from Gosha Rubchinskiy‘s team about the allegations of inappropriate conduct with a minor, we now learn from an adidas spokesperson that the German sportswear brand is looking into the serious claim filed against the designer. According to reports, the brand is taking “any allegation of this nature extremely seriously” and is “currently looking into the claim that has been made.”

For the last few years, Gosha has worked closely with adidas, putting together notable collaborations to go along with his seasonal ranges. adidas’ investigation findings could spell the end of its fruitful partnership with Gosha if the claims do end up being true.

Stay tuned for more details as the story develops.
