Here comes the last sneaker of the adidas Originals Five-Two 3 Project Brands Pack – a collaboration with New York’s Nom de Guerre brand. They worked on the Forum Mid and gave it a stunning timeless design. Even though already previewed last week, we give you more views and information on the sneaker today, after already showing you the collaborations with Stone Island, Maharishi, XLarge and Porter.
Nom de Guerre’s Forum builds on the revolutionary basketball shoe’s hardwearing ankle straps and heel support made for hard landings, revising the shoe using the United States Military jungle boot as an inspiration prototype. Next, Nom de Guerre reworked the Forum’s ankle strap to reference war hospital ankle bandaging.
Additionally, the colours on the sole of the shoe serves as a reminder of the many hours of target practice accrued during training. The byproduct of these elements is an extremely versatile shoe designed to accommodate a range of climates while providing critical protection over various terrain.

As part of the adidas Originals Five-Two 3 Project, the brand invited 5 labels from around the globe to collaborate on adidas footwear. Today we can give you a first look at the Forum Hi collaboration with Nom de Guerre. The upper of the sneaker is composed of canvas and leather in black and white. The most interesting addition is for sure the zipper, replacing the laces, a feature that we often see on Japanese footwear. Overall the Forum Hi is nicely transformed into a more fashionable sneaker, while keeping its classic appeal. Expect this sneaker, along with four other collaborations from the Five-Two 3 Project to come to stores in August 2009.

On its 1983 release, the adidas Forum was an instant classic. Whether you’re a fan of high, low or mid, the Velcro-strapped masterpiece allows plenty of space for personal preference when it comes to rocking a pair, and in recent years, the Forum has shifted from an expensive, aspirational design, to a staple shoe that’s a wardrobe must-have. Despite the intimidating mix of matter-of-fact looks and technical innovation, it’s versatile enough to carry bold colours, with a history of more offbeat colour blocking. This Mid and Lo duo is no exception, adding some reflective detailing for Forums with flair.
The hard-to-miss contrast between neutral tones and blasts of colour pop doesn’t drown out the trailblazing approach to panelling, fastening, padding and style that this sneaker has been generating for nearly 3 decades, but by adding a sophisticated, contemporary feel on both makeovers, it ensures it stays as relevant as ever.
The adidas Forum Mid and Forum Lo will be getting to stores soon. Take a more detailed look at both sneakers after the jump.

After several early previews and much anticipation, the Forum x The Hundreds Snowboards and Special Blend x The Hundreds outerwear will be releasing this week.
After the recent The Hundreds x Medicom Toy collaboration and works with Gravis and eS, The Hundreds has completed yet another high profile project with two leading brands in their respective markets.
Together with Forum, The Hundreds worked on two snowboards. The uppers come in a rather subtle black, carrying the inconic The Hundreds all-over camo print. The bottoms are more colorful and feature repetitive patterns.
Together with Special Blend, The Hundreds created two sets of outerwear, one coming in a chocolate brown and the other one in a turquoise/yellow/pink combination. Bottom line there is something for everybody in the collaboration.
Both the Forum snowboards and the Special Blend outerwear, will be releasing at The Hundreds LA and SF this coming Thursday, December 4th.
Detailed images follow after the jump.

Forum Snowboards, Special Blend Outerwear and prestigious streetwear brand The Hundreds have joined forces to create a one-of-a-kind, mid-season release Forum snowboard aptly named “The Hundreds Board” and a co-branded snowboard jacket and pant based off two best selling Blend outerwear pieces. A first time collaboration with any snow brand for The Hundreds, these limited edition pieces will be available this Fall 2008 only in select Forum/Special Blend and The Hundreds dealers, as well as The Hundreds two retail locations in Los Angeles and San Francisco.
The Hundreds Board is based off the in-line twin-tip Destroyer, known as Forum’s benchmark for freestyle progression, but with a softer flex. Offered in three sizes (148, 152 and 156), this exclusive deck features a black topsheet with The Hundreds signature design UV-coating, and three unique base graphics created by Bobby Hundreds.
In addition, Special Blend created a co-branded jacket and pant with The Hundreds that are based off two best selling pieces, the tech light insulated Gunner Jacket and Battery Pant. Images and detailed information on the clothing will follow soon.
