Get ready for Bad Bunny season. Next month, Benito will take the stage in the continental US for the first time in over a year, drawing the eyeballs of the world to center stage of the Super Bowl Halftime Show in Santa Clara, California, with the world already anticipating the Puerto Rican pop superstar’s set list, sneaker choice, and anti-ICE political messages. Beyond the Super Bowl stage, Bad Bunny’s adidas deal has been heating up, with his first signature model, the BadBo 1.0, dropping soon, and new colorways of his collab adidas Ballernia next in line.

The Bad Bunny x adidas Ballerina Flamboyan first showed up on our radar last fall when Benito wore the shoes on stage during his Puerto Rico residency. The red colorway is a shoutout to the trees that cover the Puerto Rican landscape, channeling the folklore behind the Flamboyan or Flame Tree into a red, white, and gum sole color of the Ballerina.

The low-profile silhouette features a two-tone red upper with dark red suede on the toe and heel, and bright red canvas on the rest of the upper. The Three Stripes on the side panel are white leather, and the tongue label is replaced by a white rectangle with blue zig-zag stitching, just like past Bad Bunny x adidas collabs. A set of toggle-close stretch laces in red finish the Flamboyan colorway.

The Bad Bunny x adidas Ballerina Flamboyan will be released May 2026 through adidas and select retailers in-store and online. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $120. For all the latest Bad Bunny x adidas news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever mobile app.
