Kerby Jean-Raymond broke the news today that he will be stepping down from his role as Global Creative Director at Reebok, effective March 1, 2022. As Kerby gears up for his official departure, it is unclear who may be in line to succeed him. This change comes just after adidas agreed to sell Reebok to Authentic Brands Group for $2.5 Billion.
“We want to sincerely thank Kerby for his many contributions to Reebok,” said Reebok President Matt O’Toole. “The positive impact he has made on the brand will be felt for years to come. We wish him the very best.”
Kerby began his partnership with Reebok in 2017, leading the creative team to refine Reebok’s direction, and was successful at being able to help Reebok grow in key categories. Kerby also serves as the Founder and Creative Director of his own brand Pyer Moss, which he started in 2013. His departure from Reebok may be so that he can put more focus into Pyer Moss, unless there’s a new venture brewing that hasn’t been announced yet. Regardless, Kerby’s relationship with Reebok helped both parties to evolve and become greater than before.
“I enjoyed my time with Reebok and wish the company well in all of its future endeavors,” said Kerby Jean-Raymond.
As a final goodbye, Kerby will roll-out the definitive offering from Reebok by Pyer Moss – Collection 4, in late March. For more sneaker news and release dates, follow @NiceKicks on Instagram.
