adidas Originals and American fashion designer William Willy Chavarria have continued their partnership by introducing a new pink colourway to the collaborative Chavarria Megaride AG sneaker. A lively monochromatic pink version of the silhouette was originally unveiled at Willy Chavarria’s Spring/Summer 2026 show in Paris.
Paris Fashion Week debut
Known for his cinematic approach to design, Willy Chavarria seemingly blends the art’s emotional depth with political and social themes. The famed designer and social justice advocate already collaborated with adidas on the release of two Chavarria Megaride AG sneaker colourways. Subtle Cream and striking Black colour options launched in summer 2026 preceded the new pink iteration, which takes the silhouette in a brave new direction.
The pink colourway was first unveiled in June 2025. Debuting at Willy Chavarria’s Spring/Summer 2026 runway show, the pink design captured the attention of Paris Fashion Week attendees. After more than a year of anticipation, the Chavarria Megaride AG is finally here, further reinforcing the partnership between the two brands. Following a series of previous high-demand Chavarria Megaride releases, the new colourway highlights the sneaker’s sculptural form.
Conveying the joy of chewing a pink bubblegum
Bubblegum chewing, often associated with daydreaming, inspired the designer to introduce vivid pink tones to the Chavarria Megaride universe. The designer’s playful creative vision resembles a bubble that never bursts, evoking the childlike joy of chewing pink bubblegum. The monochromatic colourway further enhances the sneaker’s exaggerated cushioning system, while premium materials such as leather, oiled suede and mesh add a touch of luxury to the design. Breathable mesh forms the foundation of the upper, enveloped by translucent TPU cages that create depth and structure. Suede overlays at the toe and heel introduce a tactile contrast, while the oversized tooling further accentuates the Megaride AG’s futuristic appearance.
Pink base, red accents
An exaggerated sole unit, coloured in the same vibrant pink hue, creates a striking visual impact. The intense shades of pink are disrupted only by bright red Chavarria writing. Positioned on both tongues, the writing is accompanied by a removable red and pink silicone keychain charm featuring both adidas and Chavarria branding. adidas recognisable three-stripes symbol also appears on the heel and the sneaker’s interior. Translucent tonal overlays complete the vibrant aesthetic.
The adidas Originals x Willy Chavarria Pink Megaride AG comes in a luxurious box, elevating the unboxing experience and making it an ideal gift. The special edition pink packaging also comes with an exclusive Chavarria silicone accessory. The shoes are available from August 7, 2026, via the Hype Draw raffle system on the CONFIRMED app.
