UPDATE 5/19/26: Bad Bunny continues his partnership with adidas Originals, dropping a new “Vivid Red” Ballerina. Paying homage to Puerto Rico’s Flamboyán trees, the radiant red color connects the low-cut silhouette to both the country’s summertime flower and culture. The Ballerina silhouette retains its streamlined design inspired by the adidas Taekwondo with suede overlays, bungee-cord laces, “Benito” branding and an outside size tag. Expect the high demand silhouette to continue gathering steam after releases at Bad Bunny’s Puerto Rico residency, Super Bowl performance and adidas worldwide World Cup marketing campaign.
Look for the Bad Bunny x adidas Ballerina “Vivid Red” to release May 30th retailing at $120 via the CONFIRMED App, adidas.com/bad_bunny and select retailers. Available to sign up for May 25th on CONFIRMED.
Original Story 5/11/26:
Bad Bunny’s adidas catalog continues to grow with the upcoming adidas Ballerina “Flamboyan”, a bold red colorway tied to Puerto Rico’s vibrant landscape. The pair pulls inspiration from the flamboyán tree, known for its fiery red-orange flowers and strong cultural connection to the island.
A rich red shade covers most of the slim silhouette, giving the shoe a bright and direct look. White Three Stripes branding adds contrast across the side panels, while tan midsole accents bring a soft vintage finish. The pair also features quick-toggle laces, small gold “benito” branding, and co-branded adidas Para Bad Bunny details on the insole.
The adidas Ballerina first appeared in Bad Bunny’s lineup with a softer, fashion-forward build compared to his chunkier models. This “Flamboyan” colorway keeps that sleek shape intact while adding a stronger story through its Puerto Rico-inspired palette.
Bad Bunny and adidas have kept a steady pace with new footwear projects, including the Badbo 1.0 and upcoming football-inspired releases. However, the Ballerina still feels like one of the cleaner lifestyle entries from the partnership, especially with this bright red execution.
The Bad Bunny x adidas Ballerina “Flamboyan” releases May 30, 2026 through adidas Confirmed and select retailers. A limited early release is expected on May 15th through All The Right. The retail price is set at $120 USD.
