In celebration of the 45th anniversary of Terry Fox’s Marathon of Hope, Adidas is re-releasing the iconic Orion shoe that he wore during his unforgettable Marathon of Hope in 1980.

The limited-edition navy blue and white shoes feature the words “Terry Fox” in gold and come with commemorative shoelaces. All proceeds will directly support life-changing cancer research in Canada.

“It’s heart-warming to see Canadians across the country continue to resonate with Terry’s legacy more than 45 years later,” said Fred Fox, Terry’s older brother. “We hope that these shoes will serve as an inspirational reminder that it’s up to all of us to finish the marathon against cancer that Terry started.”

Terry’s classic Orion shoe was last released in 2020 to honor the 40th anniversary of his Marathon of Hope. It was one of the most beloved drops in Adidas Canada’s history—a true demonstration of the enduring power and impact of Terry’s story.
