\n\tEagle-eyed fans have likely already seen the new shoe before. The \u201cNuevayol\u201d singer laced up his latest Ballerina style<\/a> in vivid red during his sold-out residency in Puerto Rico. According to a press release from Adidas, the Ballerina color scheme was inspired by \u201cthe vibrant bloom of Puerto Rico\u2019s Flamboy\u00e1n trees as they flower in late May.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tThe new Ballerina colorway drops on Saturday, May 30, at 2 p.m. ET\/11 a.m. PT on Adidas.com<\/a>. The shoe retails for $120<\/a> and comes in fiery red with contrasting white accents.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\tExplore\t\t<\/p>\n \t\t\t<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n See latest videos, charts and news<\/p>\n \n\tTextured suede uppers give way to bungee-cord laces, keeping the shoes more securely fastened to the feet than traditional closures. This is a slim, streamlined silhouette designed for everyday wear that looks very similar to Adidas\u2019 Taekwondo shoe released in the early 2000s,<\/a> created for performance without laces for martial arts combat.<\/p>\n \t\t\t<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\tBad Bunny Ballerina in Vivid Red\t\t<\/p>\n \n\t\tThe Flamboy\u00e1n tree produces vibrant red flowers. The tree and its flowers<\/a> hold a special place in Puerto Rican folklore, seen as a symbol of resilience.\t<\/p>\n \n\tWe love the vivid red Ballerina<\/a> because it is a sporty take on dancerly footwear and one that you can wear more frequently without damage, unlike a less-structured ballet flat made of flimsier materials. You\u2019ll get more mileage out of a shoe like this because of its sturdy construction. We also recommend the Bad Bunny Ballerina<\/a> because the color isn\u2019t already available in Adidas\u2019 Ballerina line, and is vastly different in color from anything the artist has dropped with the brand in the past<\/a>. It\u2019s an entirely new offering, and it can serve as a statement shoe in your rotation.<\/p>\n \n\tAdidas and Bad Bunny last dropped a new BADBO 1.0 model<\/a> on March 28 to widespread fanfare. The beige and black sneaker sold out almost instantly, just like the other collaborative styles the musician has had a hand in creating<\/a>. The current resale value of the shoe is astronomical, nearly $700 on sites such as StockX, GOAT, Stadium Goods or Farfetch. With all the hype surrounding the BADBO 1.0, it\u2019s likely this new Ballerina shoe will go just as fast. You\u2019ll want to buy while you can before it gets marked up for high prices on resale sites.<\/p>\n \n\tOriginally launched in 2025, Adidas\u2019 Ballerina comes in many forms, from pink satin like your standard ballet shoe, to a lace-up low top. There are even models with crisscrossing velcro straps that wear similarly to a Mary Jane. Bad Bunny\u2019s first Ballerina model launched back in 2025 in a <\/a>bold gold colorway. Similar to his latest vivid red creation, the bold gold Ballerina featured suede touches but came in a yellow gold hue.<\/p>\n \n\tThe two first partnered up in March 2021 with an inaugural launch of The First Cafe, a coffee-inspired Adidas Forum Buckle Low. Since then, they have come together on numerous occasions to give fans and followers styles all inspired by Bad Bunny\u2019s style, music and swagger, including the Adidas AdiRacer GT, Adidas Forum Powerphase and, our personal favorite, the Adidas Gazelle Indoor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"All products and services featured are independently chosen by editors.
