adidas Originals and Pharrell Williams have officially unveiled the VIRGINIA Adistar Jellyfish “Tan”, marking the latest colorway in their ongoing collaborative footwear series. Developed under Pharrell‘s VIRGINIA creative platform, the upcoming release expands on one of the brand’s most recognizable progressive silhouettes.
The new iteration dresses the silhouette in an understated, monochromatic Tan hue designed to emphasize its distinct proportions and sculptural architecture. Constructed with an engineered mesh upper, the shoe is wrapped in a structural external cage that anchors its futuristic aesthetic. Underfoot, a flowing midsole inspired by the fluid motion of a jellyfish provides the platform’s foundation, complemented by signature glow-in-the-dark accents across the upper to elevate its visual identity in low-light environments.
The release represents another chapter in the broader ecosystem of VIRGINIA, Pharrell Williams’ multi-disciplinary platform uniting fashion, design, music, and community. Working alongside adidas Originals, the partnership continues to re-examine heritage athletic footwear through a lens focused on design innovation and playful experimentation.
The VIRGINIA Adistar Jellyfish “Tan” officially releases globally on August 22, 2026, for $300 USD via the CONFIRMED app and select retailers worldwide, with signups opening on August 17, 2026.
