Through 8 numbered collections and several mini chapters between, Australia’s Song For The Mute has established itself as a consistently impressive partner for the Three Stripes. Their industrial, tonal design touch has taken to more than a dozen individual silhouettes: the adiStar Cushion 3, adizero PR, Country, Samba, Shadowturf, Superstar, Taekwondo, and Tokyo have taken to their vision, but they’ve got something new in store for the cusp of summer and fall.

Indeed, Song for the Mute is taking over the adiZero EVO SL, an inescapable collab presence embraced by everyone from BAPE to Bob Marley. Despite a shift away from the minimalistic to the super-stacked, trust that SFTM stays true to their core aesthetic here. Beyond the grey/brown foundation, their DIY ethos inspires hand-drawn floral notes and expressive spell-outs like the “Run Run Run” motto at the toe and the cursive spell-out on the midsole.

The Song for the Mute x adidas EVO SL drops on August 20th, retailing for $180.
