Adidas has brought back a classic from their early 2000s collection, introducing the Megaride S2 again. This shoe combines advanced cushioning for performance with trendy design elements. The updated version retains the brand’s original Adiprene cushion technology, known for its energy-return bounce, but gives it a fresh, contemporary touch. It’s now tailored for today’s resurgence of retro sportswear and the “footballcore” trend.

The Megaride S2 creates an immediate impact, featuring a mesh base layer that’s breathable and a molded rubber cage wrapping the entire upper, providing both structural support and striking visual appeal. A futuristic touch is added by a zip-up covering that hides the conventional lacing system, recalling early 2000s performance design while enhancing its lifestyle allure. The sneaker’s signature Megaride half-unit midsole in the heel offers cushioning and responsiveness, with a rubber outsole designed for all-day traction and durability on the streets. Depending on the model, patent leather accents subtly adorn the tongue and heel tab, giving a sleek, glossy finish.

To start, two color schemes are highlighted in the relaunch of the adidas Megaride S2. A striking pair emerges in a gradient from bright pink to deep purple, enveloped in a glossy black net, symbolizing the athletics of the rave era and evoking a sense of futuristic nostalgia. In contrast, a more subtle approach is taken with the second pair, which comes in an off-white colorway, subtly varying in tone. A metallic silver midsole binds the design together, giving it a polished finish and allowing the sneaker’s unique silhouette and material differences to stand out prominently.

In a fresh, contemporary style, both models preserve Adidas’s signature performance traits, showcased in their robust forefoot design and high-grip sole pattern for superior traction. Meanwhile, they appeal to fashion enthusiasts by drawing on Adidas’s technical heritage.

The Adidas Megaride S2 is currently on sale for $160 USD. Additionally, there are whispers of a special-edition JAH JAH x adidas Megaride S2, which was first shown during Paris Fashion Week, potentially launching in Spring 2026. This suggests a possible expansion of collaboration for the Megaride silhouette in the future.
