After renewing their partnership back in 2021, Jeremy Scott and adidas are in cahoots to bring back a classic from the catalog and onto the gridiron. The winged iteration of the adidas Forum, plastered with mock dollar bills bearing the designer;s face, will be returning in 2026 as a football cleat.
Scott popularized the accessorizing of sneakers, bringing plushy teddy bears, oversized wings, and even bones onto adidas footwear. Unquestionably a reflection of the late 2000s/early 2010s fashion, the Jeremy Scott x adidas footwear series experienced some incredibly high peaks, paving the way to a new age of sneaker sportswear that went beyond the limits and into the realm of charming ridiculousness.
These Money Wings are a reprisal of the 2021 release of the adidas Forum “Money” Wings, but the stripes has chosen to repurpose the design for football by adding a pegged bottom for on-field traction. The wings are purely cosmetic and won’t really give any benefit to a wide receiver or defensive back’s flight speed, but what a sight it will be to see once these hit the NFL and/or college football field.
Currently, a release is expected for March 2026.
