The design was on the Adidas classic high top model, the Forum, which has a velcro strap around the ankle. The shoe was handmade in the Adidas factory in Scheinfeld, Germany. There were only 100 pairs made, 50 went to Scott and 50 went to Adidas followed by Adicolor Collab with Adidas + Keith Haring.[5][clarification needed]Jeremy Scott, Nicki Minaj, Sky Ferreira and 2NE1 star in Adidas campaign, the diverse group is labeled "Tastemakers".[6] Backup dancers for Madonna in the Super Bowl halftime show wore Jeremy Scott track suits for Adidas Originals.[7] Jeremy Scott debuts first fragrance for Adidas fragrane for Adidas on Feb 1, 2015 in a glass replica of Scott's iconic Adidas winged sneakers.

Controversy

In June 2012, Adidas decided that a pair of sneakers designed by Scott called the JS Roundhouse Mids would not be sold after the shoes were criticised for their apparent resemblance to shackles and allusion to slavery.[14] Scott denied that the shoes had anything to do with slavery, stating it was a reference to the children's toy My Pet Monster.[15]
