Sneaker News Fashion girlies, rejoice: adidas Originals is officially linked up with Simone Rocha. Over the weekend, the partnership was announced by surprise during the Irish designer’s AW26 runway in London, marking yet another appearance on the catwalk for adidas Originals. In earlier Fashion Weeks, adidas Originals was on the calendar in partnership with Willy Chavarria and Caroline Hu.
The debut collection is over fifteen years in the making as it lands at an intersection where the three stripes is very comfortable in. Combining the grit of competitive sports with playful garnishes, Simone Rocha’s obsession with athletics is daintily retouched with pearls and ribbons. Rocha’s emblem is seen hidden within the lacy edges.
The footwear is largely in that super-slim torpedo shoe range, a trend still hotly in demand. The collection as a whole is a thoughtful remake of adidas classics such as track-tops, leather bags, and leotards. The backstage looks shared by adidas Originals reveal the full range that reads as Marie Antoinette hitting the pitch for some footy.
Currently, there is no disclosed release information regarding this debut collection by Simone Rocha x adidas Originals, but a Fall/Winter ’26 drop is in the books.
