Every marathon city has a pulse—a rhythm felt in the early morning humidity, the camaraderie of running crews winding through city avenues, and the shared anticipation as race weekend approaches. In celebration of that vibrant community spirit, adidas Indonesia and the Jakarta Running Festival (JRF) have collaborated to unveil a tribute to Indonesia’s capital: the adidas Adizero EVO SL JRF 2026.
Initially offered strictly as a bundle package alongside JRF race entries, this limited-edition daily super-trainer is officially opening to the public. Whether you are toeing the start line this October or collecting marquee race-day memorabilia, here is an inside look at how this exclusive collaboration blends high-performance running tech with the urban heartbeat of Jakarta.

A Tribute to Jakarta: Thoughtful Local Details
The standard Adizero EVO SL has quickly carved out a reputation among distance runners as a lightweight, snappy training partner that channels the race-day DNA of the elite Adizero line. With the JRF 2026 edition, adidas turned that silhouette into a wearable canvas honouring the city.
Sporting an official colorway of FTWR White / Team Royal Blue / Core Black / Lucid Red / Wonder White, the shoe balances a clean off-white base against vivid primary accents and a striking red outsole. What truly sets this edition apart are the subtle, hyper-local storytelling elements layered throughout:
Street-Culture Midsole Script: Along the lateral side of the midsole, a custom street-style "Jakarta" script pays homage to the local urban art and graffiti scene that lines the capital's thoroughfares.
Dual Branding at the Heel: The official JRF mark sits neatly on the inner heel collar, complementing the classic adidas Badge of Sport across the rear.
Course Map Insole: Step inside, and you’ll find a custom sockliner tracing a detailed map of Jakarta, highlighting the official Jakarta Running Festival race route in blue underfoot.
Area Code Aglets: On the lace tips, runners will spot "021"—Jakarta’s iconic telephone area code—stamped on one side, alongside "JRF" on the other.

Purpose-Built for the Everyday Runner
Beyond the collector appeal, the Adizero EVO SL stands as a versatile running shoe built to handle everything from tempo efforts and progression runs to daily endurance mileage.
"JRF has always been about celebrating Jakarta and its people through running," explains Dickie Widjaja, Project Director of the Jakarta Running Festival. "This year, we wanted to bring that idea to life in a new form: a running shoe. We're glad adidas shared the same vision, and together we created an EVO SL that carries Jakarta's identity with every step."
Echoing that sentiment, Cinita Dewi Mayakatri, Senior Manager Brand Activation at adidas Indonesia, notes: "Jakarta has a distinct energy, and running has become an increasingly important part of how people experience the city... The EVO SL felt like the perfect canvas: one of our most popular running silhouettes, reimagined with an identity that is unmistakably Jakarta."
With over 37,000 participants from more than 50 nations converging on the city for the myBCA Jakarta Running Festival 2026, the shoe captures a milestone moment in Southeast Asia's rapidly growing road racing culture.
