NAKED Copenhagen and adidas team up on the Adizero Evo SL Zip, adding a soft pink treatment to the zipped-up version of adidas‘ popular Evo SL.
The Adizero Evo SL grew out of adidas’ racing program, sharing the Lightstrike Pro foam that powers the brand’s marathon shoes but built for everyday wear rather than the start line. That crossover between performance and lifestyle is exactly what made the Evo SL a breakout for adidas over the past year. NAKED Copenhagen, the Danish retailer known for its women-led take on sneaker culture, starts with a pale pink base across the lightweight mesh upper, then adds metallic silver Three Stripes that run the length of the shoe to match the zipper and ankle collar. Off-white covers the thick Lightstrike Pro midsole, and NAKED CPH branding sits on the lateral ankle and the insoles.
Collabs like this matter for adidas because they keep a mostly technical shoe in the cultural conversation. NAKED brings a point of view and an audience that adidas does not always reach on its own. To me this shows the Evo SL is becoming a real canvas rather than just a running release, and boutique partners are how adidas keeps it interesting between in-line drops.
Release details: The NAKED Copenhagen x adidas Adizero Evo SL Zip carries a $185 retail price under style code LC1125, with an August 14, 2026 release date.
Where to buy: Look for the release through NAKED CPH, adidas, and select retailers.
