adidas Originals will release the new "ARKYN" silhouette, created for the next generation of women who will set new rules, on April 5th.


The "ARKYN" (¥13,000) is a completely new silhouette that advocates creativity for a new era. It is designed for rebellious women who are not bound by existing rules and regulations and live with creativity. While rooted in adidas' iconic vintage style, this completely new technical silhouette combines tradition and innovation. Playful, bold, and chic, this model transcends categories and is perfect for any occasion or situation.


This model features a clean technical mesh upper and features the signature Three Stripes and mesh tongue. The sock-like construction provides comfort and a secure fit, while striking design elements like a neoprene heel and an unconventional, minimalist lacing system enhance the shoe's aesthetic. The midsole utilizes BOOST, one of adidas' most advanced technologies, and is finished with a rubber outsole.


Style, sport, culture, and creativity. A bold combination that brings together all the elements that define adidas Originals. A total of four models, featuring a unique color palette based on blue and nude, will be released worldwide on April 5th.

The campaign's visuals also feature five female creators: Serbian artist Ana Kras, world-famous model Kendall Jenner, professional dancer and floral designer Marisa Competello, musician and photographer Syv De Blare, and professional soccer player Florencia Galarza. Together with Arkyn, we captured the various forms of free-spirited creativity in their real workspaces and personal spaces, surrounded by their personal belongings.


Photographed by Renell Medrano, a 25-year-old up-and-coming photographer with over 170,000 followers on Instagram, the photos were taken with a 35mm camera lens, capturing authentic portraits of the younger generation in their own casual, real moments. Thuan Tran, a videographer highly trusted by A$AP Mob, also participated in the film, capturing realistic images of women.

Available at the Adidas Originals Flagship Store Tokyo, Adidas Originals shops nationwide, Adidas Brand Core Stores nationwide, and the Adidas online shop.
