Lifestyle Sneakers

David Beckham has joined the adidas 'Prouder' movement by customising his own adidas Originals Samba sneaker to be placed on display in a unique exhibition and auctioned off on eBay in support of the work of the Albert Kennedy Trust, who provide safe homes and support to LGBTQ+ youth people facing homelessness.

Global creators from the LGBTQ+ community designed their own take on the iconic Samba, along with other allies including Pharrell Williams, Edward Enninful, David Beckham, Blondey McCoy, Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell & Liam Payne. The campaign culminates in adidas’ first ever float at London Pride.
