The MLS is nowhere near as popular as the NFL, NBA, MLB, or NHL, but America’s homegrown pro soccer league has a small but rabid fanbase across the states. In cities across the U.S., supporters of every MLS team show up with chants, banners, and fresh gear just like their international counterparts. In celebration of the club’s 10th season on the pitch, FC Cincinnati linked up with local sneaker boutique Unheardof and adidas for an exclusive collab dedicated to the team, the fans, and the city.
The Unheardof x FC Cincinnati x adidas Forum Low removes the typical strap and elongates the tongue in a soccer shape. The shoe is covered in team colors, starting with bold orange across most of the upper, white on the toebox, and blue on the sockliner and midsole adidas logo. The Three Stripes are silver leather as a callout to the team’s Supporters' Shield trophy from 2023, and the heel is wrapped with a debossed 3M reflective imprint of the club’s motto “All For Cincy.”
