The Willy Chavarria x adidas Jabbar Dress Low “Black” lands as part of the designer’s Spring/Summer 2025 collection, fresh from the Paris Fashion Week spotlight. While some collaborations lean into flashy patterns, Chavarria shifts the focus to reshaping. This pair transforms the classic Kareem Abdul-Jabbar silhouette into something entirely new, merging basketball roots with formalwear cues.
The upper arrives in smooth black leather, paired with a suede toe cap that sharpens the look. The pointed toe draws attention straight away, giving the shoe an elegant but assertive profile. Waxed laces and a reshaped backtab reinforce the refined finish, while the usual “Jabbar” text along the Three Stripes switches out for a minimalist “Willy” branding.
The new midsole slims down as it moves towards the forefoot, echoing the lines of a classic dress shoe rather than a court sneaker. That low-cut collar adds to the polished feel, balancing the performance-inspired foundation with elevated details. Every element of the Jabbar Dress Low reflects Chavarria’s vision, blending restraint with boldness to create a sneaker that bridges sport and fashion.
Expect the Willy Chavarria x adidas Jabbar Dress Low “Black” to drop on May 8th through adidas and select partners. Keep an eye on official channels and trusted stockists if you want to secure a pair.
