Adidas released this year’s edition of the company’s Texas-A&M-branded sneakers for the upcoming 2026-27 school year.
The Aggies’ white Adizero EVO SL EXO sneakers are now available for purchase for $160.00 plus tax and shipping, according to Texas A&M’s online shop. Along with the classic maroon three-stripe logo on either side of the sneaker, it also features the university’s logo on the heel, below the tongue and inside the shoe.
Texas A&M entered its 19th year as an Adidas school in July, with a new shoe drop almost annually.
The university is in the midst of a five-year contract with Adidas worth over $47 million, which runs from July 1, 2022, through June 30, 2027. Texas A&M’s deal with the company includes $3 million in base compensation, $6 million in product allotment and $1 million for marketing initiatives per year, plus performance incentives. Oddly enough, the Aggies’ track and field program remains a Nike-sponsored program.
This year’s sneaker drop received mixed reactions from Aggie fans on social media, as many continue to push for the school to move from Adidas when the deal comes to a close next summer. Before reaching the agreement in 2007, Texas A&M was in a deal with Nike.
Penn State and Tennessee have both switched from Nike to Adidas entering the 2026-27 athletic year, which could open the door for the Aggies to make the switch after the conclusion of the current contract.
