Derrick Rose and adidas teamed up to celebrate Black History Month using the D Rose 7, with inspiration from tennis icon Arthur Ashe. Featuring a white knit upper with black leather overlays, the shoe utilizes a multicolor pattern on the eyelets and sockliner to commemorate Ashe’s honorary degrees from more than 20 universities. The back is stamped with his ‘AA’ initials, which also signifies his anti-apartheid views and AIDS awareness. The shoe is also stamped with a 1975 logo on the back to commemorate his Grand Slam title in 1975 and world number one ranking.
