Yesterday, we wondered if Pharrell was the next to sign to adidas, but a close friend of his beat him to the punch: Nigo.
The former A Bathing Ape creative director and founder, who is now with Uniqlo, is officially with adidas Originals, per an announcement by the brand this morning.

There's no word on whether it will be sneakers and clothing, but with Nigo's expertise in both, it makes sense for him to do both. It also makes a Pharrell deal much more plausible.
