Kerwin Frost is following up the release of his first adidas product, the “Superstuffed” Superstar, with his first full adidas collection of footwear and apparel.
The “Lakeith Unleashed” trailer for the collection, shown above, features a Rube Goldberg gumball vending machine that displays miniature versions of the footwear and apparel pieces. Included is the previously previewed “Humanchives,” an anthropomorphic update to the Forum Hi complete with eyes, ears, and teeth that pays homage to designers such as Jeremy Scott and Walter Van Beirendonck, yet still something that only Kerwin could come up with.
The collection also introduces the “Benchmates,” a cast of characters created by Kerwin inspired by the animatronic cast of Chuck E. Cheese and unauthorized cartoon character murals found on the facades of daycares. These characters are found on the apparel as well as a colorful Forum Low.
Kerwin Frost’s first adidas Originals collection will be available at Kerwin’s Kingdom at ComplexCon 2021 in Long Beach on Nov 6-7th. The 60x60ft cardboard castle will also feature live performances, a museum section, and more. The global release goes down on November 17th on adidas.com.
