Pharrell Teases an adidas Humanrace Samba
Wearing the shoes at Day 2 of Mighty Dream Forum.


Earlier this week Pharrell Williams launched his inaugural Mighty Dream Forum, an annual multi-day gathering of thought leadership, idea exchange, networking, progressive conversation, and amazing food and entertainment experiences. The event was created by Pharrell to broker honest, direct dialogue to create positive economic outcomes for all.
During Day 2 of the forum in Norfolk, Pharrell took the chance to announce that Something in the Water Festival 2023 will be returning to Virginia Beach. But during the iconic creative’s talk, many were fixated on the shoes he wore on stage.
Although no real details have surfaced, Pharrell is believed to have worn a pair of unreleased adidas Humanrace Sambas. The shoes feature a classic look with a premium leather construction expressing a mix of beige and black with suede at the toe region. Detailing comes in the form of zig-zag stitching on the Three Stripes branding, Samba Classic long tongues, and HUMANRACE in gold foil at the midfoot. Finishing up the design of the shoes are light gum rubber sole units.
Take a first look at the adidas Humanrace Sambas.
