adidas has led the sneaker conversation for several years now, with other footwear giants struggling to keep up with its ability to read the market. After jumping early on the retro, low-profile trend with archive styles like the Samba and Gazelle, adidas is now looking forwards to a new era of ‘00s revivals with technical, retro charm. The Megaride S2 is one of those silhouettes, and the HUNI Worldwide x adidas Megaride S2 Black/Pink is an emphatic statement of intent.

While other brands continue to roll out tiny soles, adidas seems to be taking a sharp turn towards the endearingly bulbous silhouettes of the noughties. Nowhere is this better exemplified than in the Megaride S2.

After a number of impressive takes on the silhouette in partnership with Los Angeles’ streetwear king Hellstar, the Megaride S2 has proven its mettle in the current market and adidas is gearing up to give it more limelight.

Next up to try their hand at the silhouette is HUNI Worldwide. Hailing from Frankfurt, the brand has built a cult following with wild colors and sci-fi-inspired proportions. It tracks, then, that the subject of this partnership is the Megaride S2.

This retro-futuristic silhouette, defined by its raised heel and tunnel cushioning display is a natural fit. With supple black leather uppers, the lacing shroud and raised Three Stripes logos feel relatively understated, while vivid pink lining and accents bring HUNI’s signature.

Classic adidas branding remains throughout except for the heel tab where HUNI fits a text logo in bold pink.
