Adidas Originals x Factory International's 'Running In Motion' Exhibition

Adidas Originals x Factory International’s ‘Running In Motion Exhibition’

As part of the Adidas Originals Creator Network North with Factory International we held an exhibiton ‘Running In Motion’ which explores speed through a unique lens, taking inspiration from Manchester culture, community and Adidas’ iconic Adizero shoe.

‘Unsung Heroes’ spotlights exceptional real-life stories that uncover the profound impact running has beyond the finish line; honouring the transformative, healing power of running and celebrating the unsung heroes that uplift our running communities. As part of ‘Unsung Heroes’ we photographed our Unsung Heroes with their respective supporters.
