Following a series of Rivalry Low touch-ups, Cincinnati sneaker store Unheardof is linking back up with the Three Stripes for an Adistar Cushion 3 collaboration. Unheardof founder Philip Lipshutz wore the shoe during an appearance on the Sneaky Leak Pod, offering up a first look at the upcoming “Piggy Runner.”

The theme centers around Unheardof’s pig logo, which itself derives from Cincinnati’s longstanding reputation as one of the country’s biggest exporters of pork. Much like Nike SB’s “Pink Pig” and “When Pigs Fly” Dunks in the canon of pig-inspired shoes, Unheardof’s Adistar Cushion 3 comes decked out in pink with a slew of red accents. Pig graphics appear on the tongue and heel, while a more elaborate graphic peeks through a semi-clear outsole.

The Unheardof x adidas Adistar Cushion 3 “Piggy Runner” doesn’t have a confirmed release date yet, but Lipshutz hints at a Spring 2025 arrival. This page as well as our Sneaker Release Dates hub will update with official images and a firm drop date when more information comes to light.
