The Forever hitmaker, who recently showed off his extensive sneaker collection online, shared the news with fans on Instagram.com on Monday (20Jul15), when he posted the first image of his blue and white shoe.

In the accompanying caption, he wrote, "This my new wave 'Asics' (look out for my collab with Asics coming soon) (sic)".

Brown, who also owns the Black Pyramid clothing line, is the first musician to partner with bosses at the Japanese company for his own sports shoe.

The singer is the latest celebrity to land a sneaker deal - Kanye West is working with Adidas, while Brown's former love rival Drake is collaborating with Nike's Air Jordan brand.
