Grounded in craft, adidas Originals and Pharrell Williams introduce the next iteration of the VIRGINIA Vario FLAT EARTHER silhouette – now, in two suede colorways: Black and Blue.
Following the model’s debut earlier this year, VIRGINIA Vario FLAT EARTHER is rooted in the adidas Yoga Vario, a 2004 shoe born from the discipline of yoga and the philosophy of mindful movement, the silhouette continues to be reimagined through Pharrell’s lens – a study in groundedness, balance and play with perspective. Carefully considered. Expressive yet grounded.
This latest shifts into premium suede territory, bringing a softer, more lived-in feel while preserving the FLAT EARTHER’s low-profile, lifestyle-first DNA.
The result doubles down on the VIRGINIA Vario FLAT EARTHER’s original thesis: low-profile, premium, and loaded with intentionality. The suede upper lends a soft, tactile finish to the sneaker’s clean geometry. A magnetic closure system replaces traditional laces, offering an effortless on-and-off motion that reinforces the model’s philosophy of intentional, frictionless movement. Leather stripes run alongside the sidewalls, anchoring the design in adidas’ visual heritage, while a rubber outsole completes the construction, finished with VIRGINIA branding underfoot.

VIRGINIA is Pharrell Williams’ creative pseudonym and cultural platform, a direct connection between Williams’ creative world and his audience. Rooted in his home state and reaching globally, it is a destination for music, community, limited-edition merchandise, live events, and boundary-pushing design.

The VIRGINIA Vario FLAT EARTHER in Suede by Pharrell Williams is available in Black and Blue for R2799 on adidas.co.za.
