Saturday's down south are different in college football season. It is a hard phenomenon to explain, but the fact is not lost on Donovan Mitchell. The perennial NBA All-Star did not want to miss the highly anticipated game between the Louisville Cardinals and Notre Dame Fighting Irish.

Not only did Mitchell take time out of his busy preseason schedule, but he brought his Cleveland Cavaliers teammates with him to L&N Federal Credit Union Stadium on Saturday night.

Thanks to the Cardinals' social media team, we got a great video of Mitchell hopping off a bus before the big game. Mitchell rocked a Starter jacket and a pair of adidas Forum Low sneakers in the 'Louisville' colorway.

While sneakerheads are accustomed to player-exclusive sneakers never being released to the public, that is not the case with these kicks. Below is everything online shoppers need to know about the recently released NCAA x adidas Forum Low collection.

The adidas Forum Low 'Louisville' was launched on October 1 for $120 in adult sizes. Fans can purchase the Cardinals-themed kicks, Mitchell's college jersey, and other Louisville gear on the adidas website and the adidas app.

It has been decades since the adidas Forum danced across the court as the confetti fell from the sky. But the old-school hoop shoe is back and better than ever in collegiate colors to celebrate the best college basketball teams. The model sports a luxe nubuck upper with leather accents and iconic details, from the layered upper to the three stripes. 

Whether cutting down the nets or storming the field, you cannot go wrong on the adidas Forum Low. Hats off to Louisville for their massive victory, and salute to adidas for releasing player-exclusive sneakers to the public.
