adidas’ Gigantic Runner-ish Sneaker Looks Fairly Odd (& Familiar)
There's something fairly odd and familiar about adidas' "Solar Lime" Goukana sneaker.
Cosmo and Wanda, is that you? The new bright green and pink sneakers certainly give off the same energy as Timmy Turner's fairy godparents from the show The Fairly OddParents.
Cosmo and Wanda ain't slick, as the internet often says when it sees a pink-and-green pairing. But these adidas sneakers surely look quite good in its fairy-coded outfit.
adidas' Goukana debuted in 2025 as a mashup of new and old adidas, more specifically drawing inspiration from the iconic Adios Neftenga.
The results were a new casual adidas model that looks incredibly sporty. In an interview with Highsnobiety, Federico Maccapani, adidas Originals Senior Footwear Designer, best summed up the Goukana as "modern and technical, but still unmistakably adidas."
Sounds about right.
Despite flat sneakers ruling the year, there were still plenty of ultra-beefy sneakers in 2025, including a few stompers from adidas. In addition to models like the Ozgaia and luxe Ovenuz, the sportwear brand also dropped those coveted adidas Jellyfish sneakers by Pharrell Williams. Each colorway has since sold out with swift speed.
The Goukana era looks to continue in the new year, starting with these magical "Solar Lime" pairs.
Speaking of which, the new bright green Goukana sneakers are now available on Oneness' website for $160.
