The Pharrell x adidas VIRGINIA Watermoc "Starfish" Releases September 2026
Quick Summary
- Pharrell x adidas VIRGINIA Watermoc "Starfish" releases September 15th, 2026 for $220 retail.
- Modern rework of the 1997 Equipment Water Mo features a distinctive wide midfoot strap with elastic cord fastening.
- Five bold monochrome colorways debut at Paris Fashion Week, blending 1990s and mid-2000s adidas archive references.
Pharrell is bringing another deep adidas archive cut back into circulation with the VIRGINIA Watermoc "Starfish," a modern rework of the Equipment Water Mo originally built for use around water in 1997. The shoe made its debut during Paris Fashion Week across five bold colorways, each following a mostly monochrome setup that keeps the focus on the sculpted panels and unusual fastening system.
The updated construction retains the functional DNA of the original while sharpening the silhouette for a fashion-forward audience. A lightweight technical upper sits over a low rubber outsole engineered for traction on slick surfaces, and the grooved midsole and rugged tread pull from the adidas Carnuba Adventure Moc of the mid-2000s, layering in a second archival reference without turning the shoe into a direct remake. The most distinctive detail is a wide midfoot strap that originates near the inside collar, wraps across the top of the foot, and fastens on the lateral side with an elastic cord, simultaneously locking the foot in place and breaking up the otherwise stripped-back upper.
The Pharrell x adidas VIRGINIA Watermoc "Starfish" is set to release on September 15th, 2026 for a retail price of $220. To stay informed on all things Adidas and to stay up to date with the latest releases, connect with us on Instagram and Twitter.
