# Bold Split-Logo Runners The BAPE x adidas Adizero EVO SL Introduces Two Asymmetrical Colorways By Amy Duong | Published 2026-06-10 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adizero-evo-sl-3 References: [adidas](http://adidas.com/)  The BAPE x adidas [Adizero EVO SL](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adizero-evo-sl) is the latest footwear release from the brands’ ongoing collaboration, combining adidas running technology with BAPE’s signature graphic approach. The collection arrives in two colorways: “Blue/Green” and “White/Gold.” The Blue/Green version adopts a split-foot design, pairing a royal blue mesh upper on one shoe with a dark green mesh upper on the other. Red laces, matching collar linings, and turquoise accents create additional contrast across the mismatched pair, reinforcing the collection’s bold visual identity. The White/Gold colorway takes a lighter approach with a white engineered mesh upper accented by asymmetrical pink and blue details across the left and right shoes. Both versions feature alternating branding arrangements, with [adidas’](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultraboost-5-x-hermanos-koumori) Three Stripes appearing on one side and BAPE’s STA logo on the other, while the opposing shoe reverses the layout. Performance features include adidas’ [LIGHTSTRIKE PRO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adizero-evo-sl-2) foam midsole for responsive cushioning and a contrasting outsole with yellow traction elements.
