The Eric Emanuel x adidas Forum 84 Hi “Louisville” is a December 2021 collaboration by the fashion designer on the vintage basketball shoe in a colorway dedicated to the Louisville Cardinals. Emanuel’s collaboration on the Forum 84 Hi in the “Louisville” colorway is one of multiple college basketball makeups of the shoe released in 2021, which includes styles made up in the honor of the Kansas Jayhawks and Indiana Hoosiers. Here, though, the “Louisville” features mostly light cream-colored leather appearance with tonal overlays. A black felt Three Stripes branding hit appears on the sides. “Louisville” branding in red is found on the sand-colored suede heel overlay on the back of the shoe. Additional iconography exclusive to the Louisville Cardinals college basketball team appears in the form of the school’s mascot, Cardinal Bird, on the tongue tag. Navy “EE” detailing can be found on the lateral side of the forefoot. A black tumbled leather overlay appears on the collar above the adjustable white leather ankle strap. Finishing touches include a cream rubber midsole and contrasting black outsole. Release date: December 13, 2021
