adidas and designer Tulie Yaito recently announced the limited edition adidas Forum HI, which you can get your hands on from 8 July 2023. Tulie is known for her vibrant designs and creative use of colour and materials.
Get to Know Tulie Yaito
The designer is not only known for her colourful designs, but also for founding the label 'Yaito'. Raised in Jamaica, Tulie moved to New York to study fashion marketing and merchandising. In 2015, Tulie and her partner and co-founder Carlton launched their company 'Yaito' with bespoke pieces made to order. Over time, the brand has grown to include accessories, homeware and apparel pieces.
The adidas Forum HI
The newly designed adidas Forum HI comes with a wild upper. This is a mix of pebbled leather, faux pony skin, cowhide with removable straps, blue and red ostrich embossed leather, green suede and black paisley embossed leather. The designer's influence on this limited edition sneaker shows a harmonious mix of colour, contrast and materials, referencing Tulie's Jamaican roots.
The designer tells adidas:
THIS COLLABORATION IS BIGGER THAN MYSELF. IT’S ABOUT MUCH MORE THAN JUST DESIGNING A SNEAKER BUT ALSO ADVOCATING FOR WOMEN, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO LOOK JUST LIKE ME, WHO CAME FROM LITTLE TO NOTHING, WHO MIGRATED WITH A MISSION, AND FANTASIZED ABOUT CREATING GENERATIONAL WEALTH AND BREAKING BOUNDARIES.
