adidas D. lillard 2:
color & materials; my first project working with adidas.
I was at Dame’s first nba game, it will stay with me for the rest of my life.
Dame is a quiet leader who despite entering the league as a fairly unknown player made a mark QUICKLY on his first possession when he smoked an aging Steve Nash and made it look easy. “I get to work with this guy,” was my only thought.
Dame’s leadership shows in the shoe. He didn’t want his icon model to be unaffordable for kids so we designed around a lower price point with the intention of creating fun and energy driven color ways for the consumers Dame wanted in his icon kicks. He’s a class act and it was an honor to work with him.
