WILLY CHAVARRIA X ADIDAS

On June 27th, in the solemn setting of Salle Pleyel, Willy Chavarria unveiled his Spring-Summer 2026 collection in collaboration with adidas Originals. Titled “HURON,” the capsule explores themes of resilience and dignity through a powerful and committed wardrobe.

Strong-shouldered suits, oversized poplin shirts, zip-up sweatshirts with technical panels, and wide-leg trousers shape a silhouette that merges dramatic tailoring with workwear influences. Floral embroidery, handwritten graphics, and muted tones underscore the tension between social harshness and deliberate elegance.

The sportswear dimension comes through in reimagined adidas staples: updated jerseys, color-block polos, and deconstructed tracksuits stand alongside oversized three-stripe jackets and technical mesh sets. Accessories include utilitarian duffel bags, stylized boxing gloves, and embroidered caps, aligning with the raw and emotional world of the designer. The collection champions an inclusive vision of menswear, where strength is expressed through softness.

Sneakers, as always a central part of the collaboration, are offered in four exclusive models: the Megaride AG, Megaride AG XL, a sculpted Superstar, and a reworked Jabbar Low. But what truly left a mark was the overall show—intergenerational casting, stark white lighting, and dramatic sound. Willy Chavarria delivers a moving collection, deeply rooted in his personal history and driven by his mission to redefine masculinity through fashion.
