Jerry Lorenzo hasn’t skipped a beat since he debuted his brand Fear of God to the fashion public five years ago. The Los Angeles-based designer today continues to break barriers with his apparel work and sneaker creations. 2020 saw Lorenzo and Fear of God mature at the same time. There were less distressed band and logo tees for the new year and more refined staples. The biggest highlight in terms of clothing was Fear of God’s team-up with Italian suit designer Ermenegildo Zegna. The collection for the collaboration was sophisticated as expected and possessed just the right amount of Fear of God’s contemporary flair.

In footwear, Lorenzo continued on with his work alongside Nike releasing the coveted Air Fear of God 1 early in the year. More sneakers were released throughout 2020 alongside Converse and Ermenegildo Zegna.
