2026 adidas 3ssb branding

adidas 3SSB is their High School Basketball Circuit. Each year during spring they hold a series of tournaments at facilities across the nation and eventually crowning one winner in Rockhill, South Carolina. Once the new year begins, they change up their branding…

My role: To provide brand direction with 3 different concepts to choose from.

Goal: Create 3 different concepts that step outside the box of what adidas is used to.

The player images used were provided by the adidas 3SSB team. Their team had provided the motion blur on the action shot images.
