adidas and Patrick Mahomes have joined forces to launch the star quarterback’s signature training shoe and an apparel collection to go alongside it.
The footwear and apparel design feature Mahome’s new brand identity that sees his primary signature logo mainly highlight a gladiator mask. The mask represents Mahomes’ warrior mentality while other logos continue to evoke other motifs such as a heartbeat wavelength and a clock face turned to depict 2 p.m.; the time is specific to the NFL player and a nickname he often responds to. Mahomes shares, “The gladiator mask in my logo represents the mindset of making an impact every single day. Whether it’s training in the gym, on-field practice or a game day – that’s always my mentality.”
Mahomes 1.0 IMPACT FLX training shoe comes in a vibrant solar green “Go Time” colorway and boasts a wavy design that features podded midsole and overlay pieces, design notes that are a nod to the team’s dynamic movements. With TPU overlays, the shoe gives athletes an additional sense of security and stability during quick footwork movements, while the ripstop stretch-woven upper offers greater durability and protection. The shoe follows a silhouette of a tongue-less bootie, creating a sock-like fit. In true adidas fashion, the shoe features the signature boost cushioning for extra comfort and responsiveness on the field and in training.
The collection also features a series of hoodies, long sleeve shirts, tees, joggers and shorts with the same branding for a cohesive look. The Mahomes 1.0 IMPACT FLX “Go Time” and the apparel collection are available online at adidas starting August 16.
