adidas and technical running brand SATISFY have announced a multi-season partnership with product releases planned throughout 2026 and beyond. The new collaboration was launched through a unique running experience in the Sonoran Desert and the reveal of their debut drop, the ADIZERO ADIOS PRO 4 SATISFY.
Bringing together adidas’ race-day performance innovation and SATISFY’s culture-first creative perspective, the collaboration explores a new expression of contemporary running culture – where elite performance, identity, community, and self-expression intersect.
“Through our partnership, adidas and SATISFY aim to elevate the intersection of performance, innovation, culture, and community to move running forward in an authentic way,” said Stephan Scholten, VP of Product. “Together, we are creating a new aesthetic language for running – one that allows runners to express identity and individuality while remaining rooted in elite performance. Running culture is evolving, and we believe the creative tension between our two perspectives can inspire new ways of experiencing the sport.”
The collaboration launched through The Circle Pit, a new running concept that goes beyond traditional track races. Set at the pump track of the Naranja Park in Oro Valley, Arizona, The Circle Pit challenges traditional race formats through a closed-loop running experience – merging endurance, sound, movement, and community into a single immersive environment.
“Together with adidas, we want to continue expanding the language and perception of running culture,” said Daniel Groh, Chief Brand Officer of SATISFY. “This collaboration is not simply about combining logos – it exists at the intersection of authentic performance and cultural relevance. Both brands remain true to their identities while creating something that pushes each perspective further.”
The ADIZERO ADIOS PRO 4 SATISFY reimagines one of the world’s most successful racing silhouettes through the lens of emotion, attitude, and cultural expression. The design merges adidas’ proven race-day innovation with SATISFY’s disruptive visual language to create a product that challenges conventional ideas of performance running.
Features include an asymmetric colour fade inspired by mismatching shoes worn in skate culture and DIY spray-paint techniques, while the matte silver Energy Rods draw inspiration from off-road buggies. The limited-edition silhouette retains the proven performance innovations of the ADIZERO ADIOS PRO franchise including: full-length Lightstrike Pro foam for energy return, race-tuned Continental rubber grip with LIGHTTRAXION technology, and carbon-infused Energy Rods 2.0.
