The adidas 2021Pride Collection is full of colorful designs and messages about love and inclusion yet it avoids the usual rainbow motifs that are commonly splashed across products for Pride Month. Across the footwear collection, there are six different styles to celebrate Pride, each of which is branded with a message that shares "Love Unites."
There are silhouettes like the Adilette 2.0 Pride Slides with retro detailing, the Ultraboost 5.0 DNA shoes with a comfortable Primeknit upper and the Adizero Pro Shoes, which were created in collaboration with some of the world's fastest athletes. One of the standouts from the collection is the Forum Low Pride Shoe style with multi-colored embroidery of flowers all over.
