Bet you Run D.M.C. and adidas weren’t fully cognizant of what would emerge from Pandora’s box when they opened it in the mid-eighties. Decades later, collaborations between artists and businesses are ubiquitous. One such beneficiary of this is Puerto Rican music maestro Bad Bunny. 

Their partnership is relatively young having just begun in 2021. Since then however, they’ve done at least a dozen collaborative pairs, the latest being this “Boston Day” Response CL. The name alluding to last year’s declaration of Bad Bunny Day in Boston by Mayor Michelle Wu.

The pair is a display of the artist’s signatures. A contemporary design modern materials: Premium suede and breathable mesh forms the upper, placing it on the confluence of fashion, function, and culture.

Green hues make up the palette, drawing from the historic Green Monster at Fenway Park, the Boston Red Sox’s home. Finishing touches are applied by way of the cream-colored midsole, a solid black rubber outsole; along with Bad Bunny’s hallmark logo on the toe, back heel, and insoles.

They’ll be released on 18 August for US$160, exclusively on Concepts’ Boston brick-and-mortar. Like most of us not a resident, there’s hope that the pair will eventually surface on the SNKRDUNK App. Keep a lookout!

Nevertheless, there’s plenty more of Bad Bunny x adidas pairs you can find on our app. Head over!
