Korn launch new merch collection with sportswear giant Adidas

Korn 2021.

Korn have officially launched their second batch of merchandise with renowned sportswear company Adidas.

The California nu metal pioneers revealed their new collection yesterday (May 8), which includes new shoes, socks, shirts and even a sequin tracksuit inspired by singer Jonathan Davis’ outfit in the 1998 Got The Life music video.

The clothing will be available to the general public from May 15.

However, buyers can preorder merch items now by signing up via the Adidas mobile app.

See the new array of merch on offer via the Instagram post below.

Korn, who rose to fame with their 1994 debut album, and Adidas have long been unofficial partners.

The band wrote a song entitled A.D.I.D.A.S. for their 1996 album Life Is Peachy and have worn the company’s clothing onstage since the mid-’90s.

The relationship became more formal last year, when the clothing titan released a collection of official Korn merch.

Availability on the items were limited, though, and much of the merch was obtained by scalpers before fans had the chance to buy.

Rumours of a second Korn x Adidas crossover first circulated last month thanks to a report by Complex.

The Complex report also stated that a third collection of Korn x Adidas clothing will come out in October 2024.

This upcoming collection was predicted to include an Adidas Superstar shoe with interchangeable stripes, as well as another tracksuit, this time reversible.

Korn are planning to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their debut with a series of blockbuster shows in late 2024.

The band will tour Europe from July and August, with the run including a concert at London’s 30,000-capacity Gunnersbury Park. Support will come from Denzel Curry, Spiritbox, Wargasm and Loathe.

Korn will then tour North America from September to October, with support from Gojira and Spiritbox.

The October 5 date at the BMO Stadium in Los Angeles will also feature Evanescence, Scars On Broadway and Vended as part of a stacked 30th-anniversary celebration.

Korn are currently working on their 15th studio album, the followup to 2022’s Requiem.
