Bruce Lee is an actor and a martial arts legend, and now he is getting his own adidas Jabbar. The Game of Death film, though incomplete due to Lee’s untimely passing in 1973, featured a memorable fight scene between Lee and Abdul-Jabbar. This scene has remained iconic in the movie industry and as a memory of Bruce Lee.
This sneaker pays homage to Lee's retro style, cultural influence and symbol of strength and resilience. In short, Bruce Lee’s impact on fashion comes from his timeless visual identity and enduring symbolism. He’s not just a martial artist, he’s a style legend.
The upcoming sneaker captures this legacy through its design. The colourway, Game of Death, features a vibrant yellow suede upper with black accents, reminiscent of Lee’s iconic jumpsuit from the film. Additionally, details include Bruce Lee’s signature embroidered on the heel and a gold silhouette of Lee performing a flying kick.
This collaboration is nostalgic and also represents Bruce Lee's unforgettable legacy, and also one of adidas' recognisable and popular models, the Jabbar.
The Bruce Lee x adidas Jabbar 'Game of Death' is set to drop on August 30th, 2025, and will be available via the official adidas website.
