Kiké Hernández returned to familiar territory over the weekend with a new pair of Bad Bunny adidas cleats made specifically for the field. During the Dodgers’ visit to Fenway Park, the Puerto Rican utility player debuted an unreleased mint green colorway of the BadBo 1.0.
Bad Bunny first brought the model into baseball earlier this year, creating special cleated versions for Team Puerto Rico during the World Baseball Classic. Hernández was among the players who received a pair at the tournament, and his latest cleats show that adidas has continued experimenting with the design beyond the original release.
The new version starts with a neutral base before adding soft mint green across the suede side panels and leather underlays. While the color loosely fits Fenway’s green surroundings, the pastel shade is noticeably lighter than the dark green used on the ballpark’s famous Green Monster.
Hernández may have originally planned to wear the cleats sooner, but a Grade 3 left oblique strain kept him out for much of the season. His return gave him the chance to break them out at the home of his former team, the Boston Red Sox.
The Bad Bunny x adidas BadBo 1.0 “Mint Green” was reportedly created exclusively for Hernández and is not currently expected to receive a retail release.
