Adidas unveiled today a new colorway of the D Rose 3 signature shoe. Dubbed “Brenda” the colorway pays homage to the most important person in Derrick’s life, his mother Brenda Rose.
The red nubuck upper represents her favorite color, and the crackled grainy finish represents Derrick’s upbringing in the Englewood neighborhood of Chicago.
The inside of each tongue has a close-up print of the D Rose family story graphic featured in the D Rose apparel collection and launch colorways.
The left tongue features an inscription of “Brenda” in stylized red script while the right features Derrick Rose’s lasered signature.
The D Rose 3 “Brenda” drops November 19 for $160, and is available at adidas Basketball. Follow the adidas Basketball Facebook and @adidasHoops with #drose3 for the next exclusive colorway debut.
