Fans of the Formula 1 team Mercedes have been insistent in their request to obtain a piece of the drivers’ fashion. Recently, George Russell and Kimi Antonelli captivated attention with metallic jackets during the hottest events of the season. Now, thanks to a collaboration between Mercedes and adidas, this demand is now a reality.
The jacket was unveiled at the end of September through the adidas Motorsport Instagram account, and the reaction has been overwhelming with over 160,000 “likes”. This shows that there is palpable interest beyond the images that have gone viral.
Available versions
Fans can choose between two versions. The Unisex 2026 Jacket Silver is priced at £220 in the UK and $300 in the US, while the 2026 Pro Jacket Silver rises to £450 or $750. Both jackets are available at adidas and Mercedes stores.
In terms of design, the jacket offers a loose cut with a high collar and zip closure. It is constructed with quality materials, including a 100% polyurethane outer and a recycled polyamide lining. This design not only stands out for its aesthetics but also aligns with fashion trends.
Technology and functionality
Its shine is a return to the idea of the CLIMACOOL concept, designed to keep drivers comfortable under the scorching sun. While the team version includes cooling agents and built-in fans, the version available to the public does not feature these advanced functionalities.
With an increasing demand, fans wanting to get one of these jackets will need to act quickly before they sell out.
