Foot Locker recently announced third-quarter earnings, with revenue benefited from a higher-than-planned allocation of Nike, an increase management viewed as enabling the chain to offset the loss of Yeezy product. In discussing the all-important holiday season, an executive on the call also let it be known there will be a Adidas Fear of God Athletics capsule.

Commenting on how the company plans to make up for lost Yeezy product, which was estimated to account for $40 million of fourth-quarter sales, chief operating officer Franklin Bracken said, “There’s a great partnership that they launched with Jerry Lorenzo‘s, Fear of God this holiday. So we’ll lean into and partner and continue to collaborate, tell great stories and plenty of other franchises across the adidas brand.” Bracken didn’t comment further on whether the drop would include apparel or shoes or both.

Adidas announced its partnership with Jerry Lorenzo in December 2020. Overseeing a collaborative label dubbed Fear of God Athletics, Lorenzo’s role was described as directing creative and business for Adidas basketball globally.

Since then, the only product released has been a hoodie and a crewneck sweatshirt (above) launched at Innersect, Shanghai in January 2022. On a March 2022 earnings call, then Adidas CEO Kasper Rørsted named dropped Lorenzo 13 times and promised the first collection would launch in summer 2022. However, summer came and went as did the opening of the 2022 NBA season without any Fear of God Athletics product or launch news.

Lorenzo hasn’t commented on the delay nor has Adidas. Notable, ex-Jordan exec Jason Mayden, who was announced a president of Fear of God Athletics, in February 2021, appears to no longer be associated with the project. Mayden Instagram no longer references the brand and his LinkedIn account indicates he left the role in October 2022.

Scathing 5,400-word report via The Cut's Tahirah H Scathing 5,400-word report via The Cut's Tahirah Hairston on Kerby Jean-Raymond whose label Pyer Moss appears to no longer be operational. 

Check out an excerpt below. 

Ten years in, Jean-Raymond’s star has only risen. He hangs out with celebrities (Tracee Ellis Ross, Brent Faiyaz), made a cameo on Insecure, and drives flashy cars (a McLaren 720S, an Aston Martin Superleggera, a Porsche GT3 RS). Meanwhile, his brand is nearly nonexistent.

There is no Pyer Moss boutique. The clothing celebrated on the runway was mostly not available to anybody who didn’t have a celebrity stylist to pull it for them, and company insiders complained that quality control was so uneven that at times what was produced was too flawed to be sold. Jean-Raymond sometimes missed deadlines, didn’t always pay bills, started other projects, and alienated allies. He referred to Pyer Moss as an “art project” and seemed reluctant to make practical choices. Among the fashion insiders who had cheered his rise, there has been a growing feeling that he has wasted an opportunity to build something important.

The last straw for many of his early supporters was his couture show in July 2021. Titled “WAT U IZ,” and put on in the U.S. during Paris Couture Week, it was a tribute to the various innovations that Black people have been responsible for, often without credit. The models came down the runway decked out in a jar of peanut butter and a traffic light. A lot of it wasn’t really clothing, much less couture. Even if the professional critics and other members of the fashion press seemed hesitant to publicly express their disappointment, they whispered among each other that he’d lost the plot of his brand.
