Athletic apparel giant adidas join forces with Bad Bunny and Lionel Messi to reimagine the adidas Gazelle and F50 designs with bold, iconic details

A groundbreaking collaboration has united global music sensation Bad Bunny, soccer legend Lionel Messi and adidas in a pioneering footwear line. The Bad Bunny x Messi collection reimagines adidas’ iconic creations, namely the Gazelle and the F50 cleats. Each of these represent the essence of both personalities and their cross-cultural backgrounds. On a more detailed note, the Gazelle is made in a natural-toned aniline leather that gains its own unique patina. There are X-shaped stripes on the heel—a subtle reference to Messi’s number 10 jersey. Meanwhile, the F50 adopts the same color palettes as the Gazelle with a blue accent as a nod to the Argentinian flag. Last but not least, the shoes also sport the Trefoil and Badge of Sport logos, along with “Bad Bunny par Messi” on the tongue as signature detailing.
