The adidas VIRGINIA roster had a hot 2025, getting its feet under it with an oversized Superstar before taking over timelines and news feeds with the adidas Jellyfish. Earning sneaker of the year honors for a number of outlets, the shoe is looking to go back to back.

That’s the case even as Pharrell Williams expands his adidas roster with the VIRGINIA Verio Flat Earther and a range of new silhouettes teased with bottom-up shots earlier this month. The “OG” is now back in the spotlight as the man himself is back in the adidas Jellyfish, redoubling a tan and blue version first spotted at the Footwear News Achievement Awards.

Given the fact that a vast majority of publicly-spotted and publicly-released versions have operated off the same tone-on-white script, this pair marks a potential new direction as the Jellyfish enters Year Two. Shifting to lifestyle vs. sporty certainly aligns with the fashion-forward atmosphere that the multi-hyphenate has always championed, pinning light beige and sky blue together for this colorway.

As these new shots come to light, we’re also getting confirmation that this pair will be dropping in September 2026. Catch updated new looks below.
