Zach Saraceno is next up. The 25-year-old from Encinitas, California, came into his own with a standout part in Davonte Jolly’s 2020 video Godspeed, and since then, the Zoomer prodigy has done nothing but produce. Now pro for Tyshawn Jones’ King Skateboards, Saraceno is checking another box off the list, dropping his first signature colorway with longtime sponsor adidas.
Considering they travel the world together and share the same sponsors from head to toe to board, it's only fitting that Saraceno’s first colorway comes on TJ’s signature Tyshawn II silhouette. Saraceno’s rendition is simple but endlessly clean, putting premium white leather across the entire upper, with dark brown suede on the side panel stripes and heel counter. The midsole is a cream tan colorway that looks slightly weathered, with pops of dark brown showing from the outsole.
Saraceno is known for his blend of effortless style and big tricks, hucking perfect nollie flips and switch back heels down massive stair sets like he’s going off a curb. Apart from King owner Jones and founding team rider Na-Kel Smith, Saraceno has been the new brand’s most noteworthy addition. After a messy break-up and ongoing lawsuit against Supreme, Jones has been thriving with his brands King and Hardies Hardware (another Saraceno sponsor), plus two adidas shoes in production simultaneously.
Zach Saraceno's adidas Tyshawn II colorway will be released September 6, 2025 at select skate shops across the world and through select adidas accounts in-store and online. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $100.
