Bad Bunny Breaks Out Never-Before-Seen Red adidas Ballerina On Stage
Bad Bunny has owned the summer, but what else is new? After completing a world tour (minus the continental US, which Benito protested for political reasons), the global star settled in at home, kicking off a 30-night residency at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico in San Juan. The 10-weekend program was only open to Puerto Rican residents for the first three weeks but has since become the event of the year, drawing celebs like LeBron, Austin Butler, and John Hamm to PR.
At the 21st show of the residency this past weekend, Bad Bunny broke out a new red pair of his adidas Ballerina. The shoes, spotted in Instagram photos taken by Jonuel Dávila at Sunday’s concert, have an all-red upper, white stripes that extend across the sole, and a classic gum bottom. It’s hard to tell from the pictures, but if we had to guess, we’d say the material looks suede from our angle.
The slim Bad Bunny x adidas Ballerina dropped this past spring in three colorways: yellow, white, and black, and they all sold out fast. Bad Bunny’s adidas partnership has been nothing short of prolific, bringing out models like the SL72, Gazelle, and Adiracer GT, as well as debuting new models like the Ballerina and the upcoming BadBo 1.0. No matter what Benito does, the world watches.
The concert photos are the only images we’ve seen of the red Ballerinas so far, but we’re hoping for a drop announcement sometime in the near future.
