adidas turned back time last year by bringing back Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s signature shoe, the adidas Jabbar. Its low and high-top variants have been the subject of fun colorways and high-powered collaborations since, with yet another project being teased by the Three Stripes.
Bruce Lee has remained an inspirational figure for generations, prompting everything from stories to sneakers made in his honor. The latest Lee-themed shoe to appear is this adidas Jabbar Lo “Game of Death.” Not only does it feature callouts to Lee such as his signature at the lateral heel and a silhouette of him at the heel, but the yellow and gold rendition also remembers Lee’s time with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for Game of Death. The film, while incomplete prior to Lee’s death, went on to be finished posthumously and notably features a scene in which the two athletic greats fight. Related graphics are included at the sockliner and packaging, completing this special tribute.
At the time of writing, adidas has not yet discussed when this Bruce Lee x adidas Jabbar Lo “Game of Death” colorway will be dropping. Stay tuned for updates, including official confirmation of the project’s rollout, as we currently expect the pair to land on shelves starting on August 30 via adidas and select retailers at a retail price of $110 USD.
