Bad Bunny and adidas continue to make waves, kicking off the year with an exciting new collaboration—the Ballerina silhouette.
Ballerina is a vibrant fusion of dance, rhythm, and cultural evolution, honoring Puerto Rico and Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio’s roots.
The Ballerina model draws its design inspiration from the iconic adidas Taekwondo model. Originally crafted for martial artists at the peak of their sport in the early 2000s, the Ballerina fuses sleek, modern aesthetics with a nod to its performance heritage.
This model arrives in a vibrant gold color scheme, reflecting Puerto Rico’s dance culture and Bad Bunny’s artistic evolution. Design touches incorporate premium suede overlays on the toe and heel, enhancing its texture, while a streamlined shape and bungee-cord laces offer a secure, contemporary fit. The sneaker also features unique “Benito” branding near the signature Three Stripes and a special sizing tag on the exterior, serving as a tribute to his past adidas collaborations.
