A Ma Maniére is pretty much woven into the Nike Inc. fabric nowadays, but it wasn’t always that way. Before making a name for itself on the Air Jordan 3 in 2021, the Whitaker Group retailer checked off its first collab with Diadora and also released a handful of collaborations with adidas back in the UltraBOOST era.

Given it’s been almost five full years since A Ma Maniére released a non-Nike sneaker, this latest development comes as a true surprise. A Ma Maniére is reconvening with adidas for a collaboration on the resurgent adidas Jabbar Lo silhouette, tipped off here via retailer images. Considering Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s activism and A Ma Maniére’s work pertaining to social justice, we’d say the brand to silhouette pairing is an appropriate one.

The sneaker is kept understated with an Off-White leather upper and pre-distressed Hazy Beige midsole, complete with an archival gold graphic of Kareem performing his iconic skyhook on the tongue. The backtab and insoles are where things get interesting. Blue and green patterns reminiscent of tiles land on the left and right backtabs, respectively, while the insoles nod to Kareem’s stardom with globe graphics.

We should note that A Ma Maniére teaming back up with adidas shouldn’t signal a dissolution of the retailer’s Nike relationship. The Whitaker Group is currently expected to release Nike V5 RNR collabs through all its retailer outposts, A Ma Maniére included.

The A Ma Maniére x adidas Jabbar Lo releases February 14th, 2026 for $120 USD, likely via retailers and adidas CONFIRMED. See official retailer images below if you’re considering copping.
