Editor’s Notes: Longtime friends and collaborators Pharrell and Nigo have come together for a new adidas collaboration celebrating their relationship. Referred to as the "Friendship" pack, the capsule includes two colorways of the TOKIO SOLAR HU and two colorways of the PW BOOST SLIDE.

Pharrell x Nigo x adidas draws from the past while looking to the future, ultimately exploring the duo's cross-cultural impact on music, sport, and fashion. Leading the collaboration, the TOKIO SOLAR HU is a nod to adidas' archival Tokio silhouette, here designed to reimagine the brand's sporting legacy. The PW BOOST SLIDE then references Nigo's national heritage, with its Japanese embroidery of “you” on the left slide and “me” on the right slide.
