Taking off? “FOG x Adi” swept up by dealers, sudden price hike…
Jerry’s old dog, who has been mixing social security for 3 years, finally got his “FOG Athletics” out last week…have you guys bought it yet?
Just when the guys were debating whether the pricing above the adidas Original and Jerry’s low-profile Essentials was worth it or not, the app was completely sold out and the vendors haven’t stopped operating.
The sweatshirt, which is considered a key hot item in the Athletics lineup, was originally released at a mediocre premium on the secondary market, and went on sale offline with a number of peddlers rushing over to sweep it up first thing.
And online, recently, suddenly was the peddler buddies organized wave of fierce rush.
From the initial price of around 1k8, this sweatshirt has now been easily lifted to the 2000+ level, and the most expensive size even reaches 2899 RMB! And the original price in China is 1599.
In addition, two days ago we also reported the foreign official website to secretly increase the price of the news, was speculated in the three stripes sweater final original price directly approaching 2k3, this time it is finally the turn of the domestic price is more affordable
So this round of traffickers sweep, and foreign price increases have a relationship?
But on the flip side, the heavyweight co-branded shoes are as low as $1,799 for the Athletics Basketball and $1,519 for the Athletics 86. After deducting the platform fee, it’s basically an embarrassing situation of losing money on arrival.
Compare that to Jerry’s pinnacle piece from his time at Nike, the Air Fear Of God 1, originally priced at $2,499, which is still at a premium under the massive color palette system.
Sensational, this time it kind of knocks down the price of FOG?
So while this new co-brand is released, let’s take a look at what FOG has co-branded in recent years. What are the prices now?
“FOG Co-branded Sneaker Inventory

At the same time, the shoes color in the launch of a full 8 pairs still maintain a premium of 4000 +, and the follow-up Jerry old dog is the launch of the yellow friends and family limited color, the current secondary market premium has been maintained in the 2w + mark, enough to see the status of the high!

- FOG x Nike Air SA Shoot Around
The less angular Shoot Around was affectionately referred to by many fans as the simpler version of the OG 1. The most noticeable feature was the disappearance of the TPU design on the shoe’s body, and the lacing system was simplified to a drawstring design.
Back then however, it was still priced high at 2099, and has led to a secondary market premium that now remains at around $4,000. The FOG 1 is the perfect flat replacement for the FOG 1, so what are your choices?

FOG x Nike Air Fear Of God 180 is another pair of 180 version, is once again in the shoes in the “reduction”. The overall shape of the mid-top + cross cross Velcro posture, the upper car line also increased the visual impact of this section, the material is still full of sincerity, the year still has a good popularity performance.
As well, compared to the high price tag of its own big brother, the FOG 180 version of this pair at only $1,199 is definitely considered to be the king of in-rolls in the series, and the market resale is at a premium level of 2,000+. But with Jerry out of the picture and the heat dissipating, they can now be picked up for as low as less than a thousand dollars~
Shoes Item No.:AT8087-001 / AT8087-002

- FOG x Nike Air Fear Of Gog Moccasin
Last but not least is FOG x Nike’s youth version of the Moccasin, which continues the midsole design while adopting a lower-top shape and simplifying the shoe’s body to a Velcro-only design.
Velcro is attached to the upper for a nice wrap, and at a low price of 400+ it’s a great choice for a Fog x Nike shoe.

- FOG x Nike air Skylon 2
FOG × Nike series in the only pair of retro running shoes Nike air Skylon 2, in many basketball shoes is a stream of existence. Under Jerry’s tutelage, the whole pair of shoes in the material as well as the color palette, there is still a clear co-branding recognition of the existence of.
This co-branded pair from FOG, which was only $999 back in the day, is now a great pair of self-wear shoes as the price for women’s sizes has even dipped down to near $500+.

- FOG Essentials x Converse 1970s
After talking about the hot Nike camp, Converse, a fellow division member, also linked up with FOG’s explosive varsity line Essentials in those two years to release several pairs of classic 1970s shoes.
The color scheme is quite like Jerry’s usual color palette level, with basic cream, black, and grey spliced together, and the whole thing is not really much new, so I’m sure there are a lot of fans who are running to the FOG Essentials co-branded logo at the back.
However the original price is not low $899 price, in the era of Essentials became the explosion of school uniforms, plus the level of the premium of a small few hundred dollars still become a lot of hipsters preferred…
Shoes Item No.:167954C / 167955C / 168219C
Lowest price in the market: 959RMB (reference size: 36.5)
- FOG Essentials x Converse Skidgrip
Another pair of Converse co-branded Skidgrip is a brand new shoe with Jerry’s participation in the design, and with the similar styling of FOG’s mainline 101, it received a lot of attention upon release. And judging from the graffiti prints on the shoes, the overall look is also a departure from the previous minimalist solid color style.
However, due to the fact that the face value is just too fancy, as well as the lack of FOG’s recognizability, the current price of this co-branded pair with Converse has been exaggerated to a minimum of 100+ dump. So the cheapest FOG co-branded shoes were born…
Shoes Item No.:169888C
The lowest price in the market: 184 yuan (reference size: 35.5)
- FOG x Vans Era 95
Speaking of the most impressive Fear Of God co-branded shoes, many old fans have to mention the Vans Era 95, which had a 5-figure performance in the secondary market. the shoes were first launched in the fourth season of Fear Of God, and once they were on the market, they gained the love of various celebrities and players.
Bieber has been wearing it many times, and it can definitely be considered one of the hottest Vans co-brandings in the world!
Shoes Item No.:VN0A2XRYML6
The lowest price in the market: 15999 yuan (reference size: 36.5)
- FOG x Vans SK8 Hi 38
The FOG x Vans SK8 Hi 38 is a pair of “green” SK8 Hi 38 shoes, which are much more understated than the Era 95, which is full of logos. The black and white color blocking is only used on the shoe, but due to the scarcity of stock, the market has been full of premiums.
This pair is also a regular wearer of the old hipster Bieber, but it does have an overly plain look, and those who like it can also find a nice flat replacement in the popular model.
Shoes Item No.:VN0A2XS1ML5
Lowest price in the market: 2899RMB (reference size: 36.5)
- FOG x Vans Slip-on 47 DX
The last pair of FOG x Vans Slip-on shoes also impressed many fans, with the addition of Velcro at the toe and thus a change from the traditional Slip-on, where the most popular black and white version has long since climbed to a premium of 8,000+.
The white and red as well as the solid red versions that Jerry had previously been carrying like crazy were also must-haves for the high street top guys earlier, so it’s safe to say that the FOG x Vans co-branding in those years was a real gem.
Shoes Item No.:VN0A3J9FPQR / VN03J9FPQR / VN0A3J9FPQT
Lowest price in the market: 2999RMB (reference size: 42)
- FOG x Zegna
Zegna and Fear Of God’s co-branded shoes released in 2020 are presumably less familiar. Unique fashion styling + FOG’s unique street elements, into in Jerry’s manipulation, beanies finally get rid of the awkward positioning.
As a Zegna production, the original price took off directly to $6,300, but now the market has long been broken, only 2,000 + can get their hands on.
Shoes Item No.:LHSUE-A4793L-PTJ
Lowest price in the market: 2399RMB (reference size: 42)
After taking stock of so many Fear Of God co-branded shoes, I have to say that Jerry’s old dog himself still has his own design style. Although the problem of love of color is serious, but a number of shoes are still very personal style, let a person can get a glance to the high street men’s emperor production.
Now FOG × adidas many new shoes have begun to debut one after another, on the current cold environment of the shoe market, want to reproduce Yeezy’s heyday for the time being seems to be unable to realize.
Here to recall the famous scene with FOG co-branded for Yeezy basketball shoes, it is estimated that the old brother to now think of changing out of the shoes, will be angina bar …….
Finally, after three years of waiting, Jerry has finally delivered. Do you think this veteran adidas employee can lead the Fear Of God co-branded series back to the top?
