This collection beautifully blends intricate detailing with mixed materials across both apparel and footwear, celebrating cultural roots with a fresh, modern twist.
Standout apparel features the Chavarria Mockneck, showcasing the designer’s name on the collar, and the Chicano Sweatshirt, adorned with a Mexican flag alongside red and green accents. Highlights also include leather and satin bomber jackets, a sleek half-zip, and a dazzle jersey. Designed for that oversized vibe, these pieces emphasize fluidity and a raw-edge style that feels both bold and wearable.
The SS26 footwear lineup includes the Forum Boot, Forum, and Jabbar Low. The Chavarria Forum Boot stands out with its premium leather upper and high-traction outsole, available in mid and low styles. The Chavarria Forum shoes feature a branded, rose-decorated tongue and aglet laces for a stylish touch. Meanwhile, the Chavarria Jabbar Low returns in four vibrant colorways, each featuring gold-foiled “KAREEM” and “WILLY” accents and a molded leather sockliner. Its signature folded tongue boasts branding from both Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Willy Chavarria.
Willy describes the collection as embodying the “beautiful tension between where we come from and where we’re destined to go.” It combines grit and elegance, capturing authenticity and style. Shot in the heart of a Boys and Girls Club in Mexico City, the campaign, led by an all-Latino cast and crew, is a celebration of Chicano culture through Chavarria’s eyes.
The Willy Chavarria x adidas SS26 collection will drop on December 12th, available at adidas.com, CONFIRMED, willychavarria.com, and select retailers. Stay connected with VZN for more updates on the latest in culture and fashion.
