Remember that colossal contract Derrick Rose just signed to extend his deal with adidas? One of the key factors that makes him such an asset to the Three Stripes is the adiZero line’s apparent popularity overseas, especially in China where speculations put Rose’s signature shoes on the same level as LeBron and Kobe in terms of popularity. With that being the case, it makes total sense for adidas Basketball to put together a tribute to a revered Chinese figure, in this case soldier of the People’s Liberation Army in China Lei Feng. The olive colorway certainly conveys the military background, and the Chinese inscriptions on the back end calling out Lei Feng cement the theme. Stay with Sneaker News after the jump to get the full photos of the adidas adiZero Rose 2.5 ‘Lei Feng’ which you can cop now from the folks at City Sole.
