Let your style soar with the jeremy scott x adidas originals js new wings.
adidas and Jeremy Scott are reprising their iconic collaboration by bringing back the notorious JS Wings. Offered in both adult and kids sizes, this incarnation of the reissued high-top silhouette features the designer’s signature wing attachment and illustrated tongue details.
Building on the momentum of adidas’ recent Forum releases, the brand revives one of its most celebrated collaborative releases, reconnecting with Jeremy Scott and introducing the innovative future-classic to a new generation.
Jeremy Scott and adidas first partnered in 2003 when the creative handshake was first established by 100 pairs of Scott’s now-iconic Forum “Money,” which was an homage to the shoe’s original $100 price tag in 1984. In 2007, adidas reconnected with Scott under the umbrella of ObyO and launched a full range of footwear and apparel including the Wings designs, plus the teddy bear Forum.

Jeremy Scott is the ‘The People’s Designer’ and pop icon known for disrupting the fashion world, creating signatures out of pop, camp, fearlessness and incisive humor. He debuted his namesake label in 1997 and was promptly nominated for Best Young Designer by the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA). The first to create a designer sneaker collection with adidas, Scott pioneered the designer collaboration. Scott has become a wardrobe and red-carpet staple for celebrities. In 2013, he was named the Creative Director of Moschino and has successfully reestablished the Italian luxury brand as one of today’s most prominent fashion houses with runway shows and highly revered designs and collaborations that continues to be a staple in pop-culture.
Last month, adidas Originals and Humanrace unveiled the NMD S1 RYAT, a hiking-inspired boot stemming from Pharrell Williams’ renewed love and appreciation for the outdoors.
When the design of the NMD S1 RYAT commenced, people were discovering and adjusting to new ways of living. While the shoe was created through a series of 3D prototypes, the design process also sought to reflect the complexities of our present-day reality, incorporating multiple, occasionally contradictory, ideas: material realities and imagined futures, objects of beauty, and tools for performance. The result is a shoe that is sensitive to culture’s ever-shifting tectonic plates, straddling the past and future, individual and community, mountain and metropolis. This is the new performance criteria.
“The RYAT is a cultural artifact and an object for humans pushing forward on our planet,” says Williams of the intent of the shoe.
