The adidas Adios Neftenga Returns Thanks to Wales Bonner

Wales Bonner and adidas Originals are back with a bang, dropping a revamped version of the classic Adios Neftenga. This sneaker first hit the scene when Haile Gebrselassie rocked them during his epic 2008 Berlin Marathon run, where he smashed the world record with a blistering finish of 2:03:59. Now, Bonner’s giving them a stylish update.

Closer Look at the Wales Bonner x adidas Adios Neftenga ‘Light Yellow’...

Bonner’s take on the Adios Neftenga keeps the spirit of the original while adding a splash of modern flair. The sneakers come in a striking yellow with black Three Stripes and silver detailing around the heel. True to Bonner’s style, there’s subtle co-branding on the tongue and insoles, staying true to the heritage while adding a contemporary twist.

This release is particularly exciting because it marks the first public outing of the model since its debut. With the success of their previous collaborations, like the Samba, this is a big step for both Bonner and adidas, bringing an archival gem back into the spotlight.

The Adios Neftenga isn’t just about looks; it’s built to perform with its lightweight construction and Adiprene cushioning, making it a nod to its running roots while fitting right in with today’s streetwear.

For those keen on scoring a pair, you’ll need to act fast. The limited-edition Wales Bonner x adidas Adios Neftenga will drop on THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 12TH 2024. You can enter the raffle now via the CONFIRMED app.
