Always looking to bring the boldest, most forward-thinking drops in the world of fashion, on 10th July, we welcome the return of Willy Chavarria x Adidas Originals Drop 2. A collection that doesn’t just redefine the intersection of streetwear and high fashion, it confronts it.
Push your boundaries. Make a statement. Willy’s got you!
Pushing Boundaries: A New Era of Streetwear with Purpose
With an unapologetic approach to design, Willy Chavarria has always blurred the lines between fashion, identity, and politics and this second Willy Chavarria Adidas collaboration takes that energy to another level. Drop 2 is more than just avant-garde streetwear; it’s a cultural movement wrapped in deconstructed silhouettes and subversive statements.
His maverick approach has been made even more pertinent following his bold Paris Fashion Week moment that shocked and inspired in equal measure.
The Silent Protest at PFW: Fashion as Resistance
During his SS26 runway show in Paris, Chavarria made global headlines with a striking silent protest. As the show opened, 35 men in oversized white Adidas x ACLU-branded tees and gym shorts knelt on the runway, heads bowed, completely silent. A haunting and powerful image that referenced the mass incarceration of migrants in El Salvador’s mega-prisons, especially those deported from the U.S. following the Trump administrations ‘ICE’ crackdown of recent months.
The imagery, echoing the de-humanisation that migrant communities face, showcased just how Chavarria uses his platform to bring real-world injustice to the spotlight. This wasn’t just about making noise or PR, it was about making you look, think, and feel.
“ICE raids are happening in my hometown of Huron, California. Armed militia are surrounding families, dragging them from their homes,” Chavarria shared. “This is a statement of resistance… of love… of identity.”
The Collection: Utility Meets Art, and Art Meets Activism
While the message was clear, the fashion spoke just as loudly. The second drop from the Willy Chavarria Adidas Originals collaboration are refined, rebellious, and crafted with an urgency that feels political, even when silent.
Deconstructed Silhouettes. Again it is oversized cuts, shifting proportions and clothing built for impact and ease. Made to be worn by those who challenge the ordinary.
Evolving Colour Palette. Drop 2 continues the signature aesthetic of Willy Chavarria x Adidas Originals with a bold black base and striking red detailing, while expanding the palette with fresh Chalk White and Dark Marine colourways — each featuring the iconic adidas 3-Stripes in perfect sync.
Details with Intention. From sculptural outerwear to heavyweight jerseys and utility cargo pants, every detail is meant to provoke. Garments as statements and statements as garments.
Adidas Roots, Chavarria’s Vision. The classic Adidas athletic codes are distorted and elevated, with recut track jackets, iconic sneakers and streetwear staples with a sharp, high-fashion twist.
Redefining Culture with Every Stitch
The Willy Chavarria design ethos is rooted in social impact, immigrant identity, and representation. Whether it’s highlighting the experiences of Latino communities or challenging the mainstream fashion narrative, Drop 2 is about inclusion, power, and visibility. In tandem with Adidas Originals and the ACLU, this drop proves that streetwear can wear its conscience just as confidently as its style.
Admittedly, this drop isn’t for everyone, but that’s the point. It’s for the disruptors. The culture-shapers. The ones who understand that style is never neutral. Whether you’re stepping out in a bold graphic hoodie, oversized cargos, or a clean-cut Jabbar Low sneaker, you’re not just wearing fashion - you’re wearing a message.
Viewed through the right lens, this is more than a collection, it’s a call to action. Are you ready to be seen?
The Willy Chavarria x Adidas Originals Drop 2 lands exclusively at Zoo Fashions Online on 10th July. The first drop saw majority sizes and styles sold out within the first hour. Drop 2 is also a limited drop, and once it’s gone—it’s gone. Don’t sleep.
