Bad Bunny linked up with Lionel Messi back in 2024 for two adidas silhouettes: a Gazelle and an Adizero F50. But today, in this sneaker roundup, we’d like to focus on the F50. A true cleated football boot, the Bad Bunny x Messi x adidas Adizero F50 was built on Messi’s preferred on-pitch boot, which he’s worn throughout his career – say less.

Bad Bunny’s Ballerina instantly gained cult status following its original release in 2025. The silhouette follows the low-profile design of the adidas Taekwondo model but gives it more of a dancer edge. A quintessentially unisex design, the Ballerina adds on the popularity of the low-pro but bringing something new to the table. His most recent colourway, the Flamboyan, was inspired (both in name and colour) by the red tree that serves as a strong cultural symbol for his homeland Puerto Rico.

This was worn on the SuperBowl stage, that’s all we need to say. The BadBo 1.0 is the artist’s first signature sneaker, designed completely from scratch. It fuses skater and basketball silhouettes, with an ultimately ‘90s aesthetic.

The Campus Light took the classic adidas Campus and amplified it with details from the artist’s previous adidas collaborations, such as the double tongue and the “El Ojo” symbol, and a more oversized silhouette. It’s a sleek and easygoing shoe.

Do you remember how big Gazelles were in 2024? Bad Bunny hopped on that wave with a bright blue and white colourway that brought an understated and timeless edge to the popular af silhouette. The shoe also nodded to the Puerto Rican artist’s San Juan roots.

Created with adidas’s 2000s archive models on the moodboard, the Response CL came in a chunky runner silhouette with a mesh base and suede overlay panels that give off a melted effect.
