Two global superstars are joining forces for a collaboration that blends style, sport, and culture.
Marrakech – Adidas Originals has just announced an extraordinary partnership between global superstars Bad Bunny and Lionel Messi.
The Bad Bunny x Messi Collection is a celebration of the powerful connection between music and football, two passions that transcend borders and cultures.
This collaboration not only honors the individual legacies of Bad Bunny and Messi but also underscores Adidas’ influence on global culture.
Known for referencing Messi in his music, Bad Bunny has long admired the football icon, mentioning him multiple times in his latest album.
Messi, in turn, has revealed that he regularly listens to Bad Bunny’s tracks before games, a testament to their mutual admiration.
Both stars are Adidas ambassadors, making this collaboration a natural extension of their shared respect and passion for their crafts.
The collection draws inspiration from Adidas’ heritage, spotlighting two iconic silhouettes: the Adidas Gazelle and the F50 soccer cleat.
The F50, a staple of Messi’s career, is revered as one of the greatest soccer cleats ever made, while the Gazelle, once a gym staple, has evolved into a lifestyle favorite, often worn by Bad Bunny himself.
Each design is rich with symbolism, from gold accents paying homage to Messi’s trophies to subtle design elements like the X stripe heel, referencing Messi’s iconic number 10.
