ABOUT KEVIN DOWNIE:
Kevin Downie’s creation is a mix of classic colourways, local support, and nostalgia from his childhood as a youth growing up in the UK. A member of the “casuals” football and fashion movement of the 80’s, the Forum mid was the perfect opportunity for him to relive one of his many fond memories involving adidas. Having bought his first Forum mid over a decade over in New York, he managed to break necks all over his home town when he returned with them on his feet, as they hadn’t been released in the UK at that time. As an independent business owner himself, Kevin is a staunch supporter of local business, so the colour scheme is dedicated to a local independently owned beer brand, “Epic”, one of his favourite brews as a beer enthusiast.

Nobody can deny the level of adidas love this man has exhibited over his decades of sneaker obsession. A veteran of the industry, Kevin’s obsession with adidas sneakers has also led him on some interesting trips – the most recent seeing him take his annual leave just to visit his ‘mecca’ – the adidas AG global headquarters in Hertzogenaurach, Germany.
