Lagos-based skate collective waf., also known as Wafflesncream, and adidas have launched their Superstar ADV collaboration globally after a limited release at adidas’ Lagos flagship. The shoe draws design details from Lagos Island and is listed on adidas’ website and at select retailers; regional availability and stock details were not provided.
The waf. and adidas Superstar ADV collaboration is now available globally, expanding beyond its earlier limited release at adidas’ flagship in Lekki, Lagos. The launch brings a sneaker developed with the Lagos-based skate collective to adidas’ website and select retailers, connecting the brand’s established Superstar design with details inspired by the city.
The collaboration’s initial release was limited to adidas’ Lagos flagship in Lekki. The October 2026 report says the sneaker has since launched globally and is available through adidas’ website and select retailers. It does not identify specific countries, retailer names or quantities.
The design takes cues from Lagos Island. The upper uses a dusty grey tone described in the report as inspired by the area’s industrial landscape, while breathable side panels address the local heat. A translucent pink outsole references the color of the Lagos sky near the water at dusk.
waf., also known as Wafflesncream, is a creative community and skate collective based in Lagos. The report identifies its co-founders as brothers Jomi Marcus-Bello, Nifemi Marcus-Bello and KC Obijiaku, and says the group was established in 2012. The partnership reworks adidas’ Superstar ADV skate silhouette.
A Lagos Collaboration Reaches New Markets
The global release gives the collaboration a potential audience beyond the local skate community that shaped it. Moving from a limited Lagos launch to a broader retail release puts the city-rooted design in front of international adidas customers, while giving waf. a larger platform within the sneaker and skate markets.
The project also carries significance for representation in brand partnerships. Hypebae describes it as adidas’ first collaboration with a Nigerian brand and waf. as the first African skate community to reinterpret the Superstar ADV. Those descriptions are attributed to the report; the supplied material does not include an adidas statement independently confirming the milestones.
For readers interested in buying the shoe, the change is practical as well as symbolic: it is no longer described as limited to the Lagos flagship. However, a global launch does not necessarily mean every region or retailer has the same stock, pricing or release terms.

From Lekki Release to Global Retail
waf. was founded in 2012, according to the source report, and has worked to develop skateboarding and creative activity in Lagos. It is described as a community as well as a collective, placing the collaboration within a local scene rather than presenting it solely as a design partnership.
The report also points to the opening of waf.’s skatepark at Freedom Park in 2024 and the group’s role in local events such as Go Skate Day. Those activities provide context for its connection to skateboarding; the article does not give attendance figures, details of the park’s operations or further information about the events.
adidas’ Superstar line has a history spanning more than half a century, the report says. The Superstar ADV is the skateboarding version involved in this release. The collaboration combines that established silhouette with colors and materials tied to Lagos Island and its surroundings, rather than presenting the shoe as an unrelated global design.
““Bringing Lagos’ most popular sneaker to the world.””

Regional Stock and Pricing Remain Unspecified
The report says the Superstar ADV is available globally, but does not list which countries or retailers are included, or whether availability is uniform across markets. It also gives no price, size range, stock level or delivery information. Buyers should check adidas’ local site or individual retailer listings for current details.
The source does not provide comments from adidas or waf. about the launch, production volume or future restocks. It also does not clarify how long the global release will run or whether the shoe will remain available after current inventory sells through.
Retail Listings Will Show Availability
The immediate next step for prospective buyers is to check adidas’ website and select retailer listings, where local pricing and stock status may be shown. Availability can differ by market, and the source does not announce a later release date or a restock schedule.
No further rollout milestones or follow-up products were disclosed in the supplied report. Any updates about regional distribution, remaining inventory or additional waf. and adidas releases would need to come from the brands or participating retailers.
