Continuing its partnership with adidas, Footpatrol applies its Shades of Black project to the Y2K Megaride AG runner. Stripping things back with a tonal execution, the design shifts the focus towards the silhouette’s sculptural tooling and technical roots.

Employing a monochromatic lens to the retro-futurist model, the collaboration sees the Megaride wrapped in varying black hues with mixed-material uppers that combine open mesh, rubberised overlays and a premium leather lacing chamber. Reflective accents illuminate the laces and 3-Stripes while FP’s Gasmask works itself across the tongue, sidewall and footbed, cementing the collab without disrupting the shoe’s aesthetic. Underfoot, the chunky sole houses propulsive Megaride cushioning that defined the silhouette on its debut, bringing archival adidas running innovation into a contemporary lifestyle setting.
