adidas Jellyfish

The adidas Jellyfish (full name VIRGINIA Adistar Jellyfish) is the latest sneaker collaboration between Pharrell Williams and adidas, first unveiled at Paris Fashion Week in March 2025. The debut came in a bold orange colorway, which would later release as the official launch pair that August.

As expected from a Pharrell product, the Jellyfish instantly became one of adidas’ most coveted new releases. Despite a $300 retail price, many of its initial colorways instantly sold out; early looks like the “Focus Olive,” “Real Green,” or “Solid Grey” command well over triple MSRP on the resale market.

Now, the sneaker receives regular updates; four colorways have already released in 2026 with several more planned between now and the end of the year. The “Storm,” “Red/Black,” “Triple Black,” “Timber,” and “Dark Brown/Frozen Green” are in the works.

When is the next adidas Jellyfish release?

Based on current information, here are the windows and/or dates for the silo’s upcoming colorways and releases:

Is the adidas Jellyfish hard to get?

Yes and no. Many of the first colorways for the model, like the “Focus Olive” or “Solid Grey,” essentially instantly sold out, partially owing to the fact that a highly limited number of pairs were distributed exclusively through CONFIRMED and blackyachtrock (Pharrell’s site).

However, beginning with the “Triple White,” adidas shifted to a broader distribution model, dropping pairs of the Jellyfish via big box retailers like Foot Locker and a wide network of boutiques. adidas does not officially announce stock numbers for upcoming colorways, so it’s hard to gauge how limited any single release will be. If there’s a particular release you’re after, best practice remains entering a healthy amount of raffles and launches overall. Yet there’s no denying that the silhouette is far more accessible now than it once was.

What shoe is the adidas Jellyfish based on?

Upon its unveiling, many connected the design of the Pharrell product to Balenciaga trainers, for its exaggeratedly chunky and wide build — measuring nearly six inches across in most sizes. While Pharrell’s luxury fashion house turn may indeed play a part in the Jellyfish’s composition, the silhouette is, in truth, based on the adidas Adistar Cushion 3, amplifying it with a heavy TPU construction designed to play with visual perception. From a side profile, it appears deceptively sleek, but viewed from above, its true bulk becomes clear.

Will there be an adidas Jellyfish 2?

As of right now, neither Pharrell nor adidas has officially confirmed a Jellyfish 2. However, Williams has made it a habit to tease new product coming from his adi partnership with on-foot previews. At various fashion shows, he’s worn a similarly exaggerated running silhouette with vents on the side and a very wide base; we and other publications have wondered whether it might be the follow-up to the Jellyfish proper.

Additionally, adidas has steadily pushed the adidas XLG 2.0, something of a “takedown” of the $300 sneaker. This combines with other members of the “adidas VIRGINIA” family like the Water Moc and Vario Flat Earther to create a rich ecosystem surrounding the original aquatic kicks.

Where can I buy the adidas Jellyfish?

As mentioned above, after working through the first half dozen or so colorways for the Jellyfish, adidas shifted its strategy to let additional retail partners into the mix. The Jellyfish is now sold at big box retailers like Foot Locker or JD Sports in addition to boutiques and, of course, adidas CONFIRMED.
