So the collaboration between Bad Bunny and Adidas continues to push on and their latest drop is neutral yet full of excitement. After months of speculation, leaked images and previous colourways the Bad Bunny x adidas Gazelle Indoor “Off-White/Black-Gum” has finally been confirmed for release date. With its distinctive twist on a classic silhouette and a fresh Puerto Rican design philosophy, this one is already creating quite a stir in the sneaker community.
Bad Bunny is playing it safe with this colourway but still walks half a tightrope with the silhouette revamp. The Gazelle Indoor “Off-White/Black-Gum” reimagines the Adidas archive, embracing the idea of “the right thing in the wrong place.” The design features a warped toe box, a puffed-up tongue, and a size tag boldly positioned on the heel. These are elements that challenge traditional sneaker design norms and cater to a new generation of streetwear fans who tend to thrive on originality.
The colourway keeps it classic with a white leather base, but the design details bring it to life: black tongues and the signature Three Stripe branding flow into a semi-translucent gum midsole and outsole while Off-white suede overlays add a layered, premium feel. This combination of classic tones with unexpected design details creates a look that’s both clean and disruptive… very premium!
Customisation is at the heart of this release and takes center stage. With detachable tongue layers and interchangeable insoles (one set thin, the other thick), Adidas and Bad Bunny are giving fans the flexibility to mix things up and create their own style as seen before on the Campus line, resonating with that extra touch of uniqueness. Beyond the sneaker itself, this release marks the debut of the “adidas ‘Para Bad Bunny’” branding which Adidas claim to be more than just a label; it signals a new direction and creative freedom in how these two cultural forces will continue to collaborate. For fans of Bad Bunny and Adidas, this seems just the beginning of a very long standing partnership.
