As adidas introduced its new basketball line, the brand unveiled a selection of footwear in its “Remember The Why” collection during NBA All-Star Weekend 2023. One of the more colourful editions in the collection was the upcoming Bad Bunny x adidas Forum Low , themed around the San Juan-based Cangrejeros de Santurce (Crabmen of Santurce) Basketball franchise that the artist co-owns.
While this isn’t the first time we’ve seen Bad Bunny take to the Forum Low, it’s definitely one of the more playful editions. The artist has decided to step away from the usual monotone toolkit and embraced his franchise’s colourway instead. References to the Puerto Rican basketball team are tasteful, with the Lobster insignia on the tongue, as well as the team’s name hidden under the featured straps. On the side wall, the star-shaped perforations are lined between the 3-Stripes, with the team’s Championship year dates written in gold foil lettering underneath. Bunny’s chunky silhouette is still a key part of the overall package, with the puffed-up ankle collar and double-tongue welcomed back onto this edition.
We are still waiting on an official release date from adidas , but these are more than likely set to drop during the second half of 2023. For more information on the Bad Bunny x adidas Forum Low “Cangrejeros”, keep it tuned into The Sole Supplier!
