Larry June is finally bringing one of his adidas collaborations to the public, and the Adistar Control 5 is getting a “Watermelon Smoothie” colorway that fits right in with his usual style.

The Bay Area rapper has been connected to the Adistar Control 5 since signing with adidas, showing up in some of the model’s early campaign work before teasing his own versions. One citrus-inspired pair stayed limited to friends and family, so this is the first one fans will actually have a shot at buying.

The “Watermelon Smoothie” pair uses a white upper that fades into red, with green and yellow details worked into the laces, branding, and sole. The lower eyelet panels are also mismatched, using different grey shades on each side.

Larry June kept the rollout on theme too. For the campaign, he shows up making a watermelon smoothie with a mix of unexpected kitchen tools, which gives the release a little more personality without overdoing it.

The Larry June x adidas Adistar Control 5 “Watermelon Smoothie” releases through a Larry June raffle on September 9, 2026, open from 9 AM to 3 PM PST. A wider global release follows September 12 through adidas.
