During Paris Fashion Week, Pharrell Williams was spotted wearing what appears to be the upcoming adidas Adistar Jellyfish V2. The artist appeared to debut the unreleased footwear model at Dior’s Spring/Summer 2027 womenswear presentation in support of creative director Jonathan Anderson.

The updated iteration retains the oversized, running-inspired shape that defined the original silhouette while offering a noticeably cleaner upper. The pair showcased by Pharrell features a predominantly grey mesh build accented with green highlights throughout the design. Compared to the first Adistar Jellyfish release, the side panels appear more stripped back with a significant reduction of the heavy TPU detailing utilized on the original model.

While adidas has yet to officially confirm the sneaker as the Adistar Jellyfish V2, the project follows several joint releases between Pharrell and the brand this year, including the Flat Earther and Water Moc. Following an earlier white and black iteration spotted in March, multiple colorways of the updated silhouette are anticipated to roll out next year.

The Pharrell x adidas Adistar Jellyfish V2 is expected to release throughout 2027.
