As size? moves into the final quarter of its 25th anniversary year, the celebrations continue with the introduction of a PUMA Speedcat two-pack — a size? exclusive that puts premium materials and considered colour combinations at the forefront of its AW25 offering. The first pair is built around a mixed texture construction, layering smooth and hairy 'Chestnut Brown' suede across the silhouette's familiar profile. 'Mountain Blue' tumbled leather marks out the Formstrip on the sidewall, while a gum rubber tyre tread outsole grounds the design with a nod to the Speedcat's motorsport DNA. The second pair shifts the palette while maintaining the same design language. 'Intense Red' leather forms the base of the upper, layered with plush tonal suede for added depth and richness. A 'Pearl Pink' suede Formstrip sweeps the sidewall in contrast, and a brown rubber slimline sole unit rounds off the construction. Across both pairs, individuality is built into the details. Each silhouette ships with three sets of laces — enabling double or triple lacing configurations — with one set intentionally cut shorter than the others to make custom styling more accessible. A small but considered touch that reinforces the creative intent behind the pack as a whole.

Seven years on from their original exclusive, size? reaches back into the adidas Originals archive to revisit one of its more distinctive silhouettes — the Montreal 76. Created as part of the German football team's kit for the 1976 Olympic Games in Montreal, the shoe was conceived with downtime in mind, its unique sole unit allowing the wearer to slip it on and off without compromising the structure of the shoe — a quietly innovative detail that set it apart from conventional leisure footwear of the era. For this 25th anniversary exclusive, the Montreal 76 returns in a supple purple suede upper that gives the silhouette a rich, contemporary feel. The shoe's defining feature remains intact — a textured rubber midsole that rises up the heel, stopping just below the heel tab, allowing it to be worn either as a traditional trainer or folded down into a mule. Perforations curve around the toe box, and visible stitching nods subtly to the shoe's football heritage. Leather 3-Stripes mark the sidewall, while a 'Montreal 76' gold foil wordmark sits above them, quietly embedding the silhouette's history into its design — a fitting archive revisit for a year defined by celebration and reflection.

The 'City Series' expands eastward with the introduction of the Sapporo, a new silhouette developed in partnership with Japanese retailer Billy's that marks the debut of the 'Japan City Series'. Two distinct creative perspectives shape the release, with size? and Billy's each bringing their own interpretation of the city to life. size?'s take draws directly from one of football's most memorable moments — David Beckham's crucial penalty against Argentina at the Sapporo Dome during the 2002 World Cup. The design pulls its visual language from the legendary adidas Fevernova match ball used in that tournament, rendered in a premium green suede upper with contrast red leather 3-Stripes furnishing the sidewalls. Agile rubber outsoles carry strong terrace associations, while gold foil wordmarks etched across the laterals mark the official debut of the Japan City Series. Billy's approach the same silhouette from an entirely different angle, setting aside the football narrative in favour of Sapporo's equally storied brewing heritage. As the home of Japan's first beer, produced in 1876, Sapporo's identity extends well beyond the pitch — and Billy's whisky and beer barrel-inspired take ensures that legacy is given its due recognition alongside size?'s footballing tribute.

The 'Anniversary City Series' rolls on as size? revisits Liverpool — a city that gave the world some of its most defining cultural moments. When adidas and size? first created the Liverpool model in 2020, it was a landmark release: the first of its kind, drawing on the city's coat of arms, its historic public transport network, the heritage of its working port, and the lavish interiors of the Philharmonic pub. Rich green suede, yellow leather 3-Stripes, and a gum sole came together to honour a city built on tradition. Five years on, the silhouette returns with a bold new complexion. The colour story flips, with orange suede now commanding the upper while green holds firm on the 3-Stripes and heel tabs — a combination that speaks to the character and identity of the city just as strongly as its predecessor. Crinkle tongues keep faith with City Series heritage, and 'Liverpool' lettering continues to mark the sidewalls. Anniversary footbeds and gum soles complete the build underfoot, while '1/2025' inscribed on the heels signals the rarity of the occasion — a fitting tribute to a city that has always done things its own way.

The second instalment of the size?-exclusive New Balance Refined Future 2002R 'Protection Pack' picks up where the first left off, continuing the series' commitment to deconstructed design and considered detailing — a concept originally conceived by designer Yue Wu that strips back beloved New Balance silhouettes to their raw, structural core. This time, the creative direction is drawn from volcanic terrain and turbulent natural landscapes. A blackened colourway sets the tone across the mesh upper, which is finished with distressed suede overlays to reinforce the worn, geological aesthetic. Exposed foam tongues and aged yellow laces introduce a vintage quality to the build, adding contrast and character against the darkened palette. Underfoot, the ABZORB midsole provides cushioning, supported by an N-ergy outsole housing Stability Web technology — finished with powdery detailing that ties the construction back to its earth-inspired roots.

Few silhouettes carry the cultural weight of the PUMA Brasil. Created in honour of the 1970 World Cup — and the legendary Brazilian side that claimed it — the Brasil has endured across the decades through its clean, minimalist profile and its deep connection to one of football's most celebrated eras. As part of its 25th anniversary exclusive lineup, size? looks to Brazilian flora for creative direction, drawing inspiration from the Quesnelia Testudo, a native flower whose vivid, colourful presence feels at home even in the most unlikely of landscapes. The concept speaks to a broader theme running through the release — the way Brazilian culture, from football to food, music to art, has an ability to take root and bloom far beyond its own borders, forging connections and communities wherever it travels. The shoe itself is built around a soft peachy suede upper, complemented by a red Formstrip and a pink lining that ties the palette together. Faithful to the original Brasil blueprint while updated enough to sit comfortably within a contemporary casual wardrobe, the size? exclusive strikes a balance between heritage and modernity — a fitting tribute to a silhouette that has always managed to do exactly the same.
