Adidas continues its retrofuturist design language with a vibrant new colorway of the Adizero Goukana, this time arriving in a searing “Better Scarlet” makeup. The model has quickly found its niche among bold lifestyle silhouettes, blending high-performance roots with forward-thinking form.
This newest iteration keeps all the eye-catching hallmarks of the model intact. The exaggerated sole unit and aggressive midsole curvature remain central, channeling clear Y2K racing DNA. The upper, composed of breathable red mesh and layered with “Better Scarlet” suede overlays, delivers a dual-tone effect that catches the eye while staying functional. A contrast of black accents along the lining and outsole adds depth, while high-shine silver hits on the Three Stripes and profile detailing give it an added edge.
The Goukana has been embraced for its mix of audacity and wearability, and this edition makes no compromises. Even beneath its striking visuals, the shoe maintains performance-minded touches. From the high-traction rubber outsole with unique stud-like tread to the engineered mesh that hugs the foot, it’s a pair designed for both style and function — with flair to spare.
While “Preloved Ink” and “Yellow” variants have already surfaced in recent months, this “Better Scarlet” entry amplifies the silhouette’s growing catalog of energetic colorways. And with adidas continuing to revive classic models and remix them with tech-inspired flair, the Goukana feels right at home.
The Adidas Adizero Goukana “Better Scarlet” is expected to release in the coming months on adidas.com and select retailers, though an official date has yet to be confirmed. Keep an eye out for updates as the brand leans deeper into this high-octane line.
