adidas Adizero Goukana Yellow

The adidas Adizero Goukana “Yellow” pays homage to the record-breaking Adios Neftenga from 2008, reinterpreting the past to keep its legacy alive today. This beefed-up sneaker commemorates the innovative mind of Japanese craftsman Toshiako Omori, the man responsible for developing the sportswear brand’s Adizero line by using real foot moulds to give world-class runners the perfect-fitting shoe. Meaning “luxurious” or “plush” in Japanese, the Goukana lives up to its name thanks to its retro-futuristic design.

This chunky trainer resembles the pair worn by Haile Gebrselassie in his legendary 2008 Berlin Marathon performance. This rendition features a vibrant yellow mesh upper with silver reflective lines and soft suede overlays. Silver 3-Stripes embellish the sidewalls, complementing the embroidered “Goukana” on the tongue and the “adizero” label on the rear. Smooth leather composes the collar and inner lining for additional support around the ankles. The exaggerated midsole incorporates the brand’s proprietary LIGHTSTRIKE technology for maximum cushioning and shock absorption. A plastic shank plate provides stability and arch support underfoot, while the segmented outsole delivers reliable traction on any outdoor surface.
