Jared Ebanks Bad Bunny’s collaborative catalog with adidas has grown rapidly since the Puerto Rican pop and rap star’s creative relationship with the 3-Stripes took hold in 2021. Providing a Midas-like touch to everything from his upcoming series of Forum Buckle Lows to the staple adidas Campus, the three-time Grammy Award winner’s fourth take on the Response CL arrives next Saturday.
Following our first look at the pair last April via Cinema Con Las Vegas, the archival running solution inspired by the brand’s early 2000s design ethos remains true to its pitch-dark allure. Jet-black hues cure a dominant majority of the pair’s real estate, imbuing the mesh base, melted leather overlays, laces, tongue and EVA-cushioned midsole within the midnight aesthetic.
The typical “Triple-Black” color blocking isn’t executed in full, as pops of indigo illuminate the mid-foot 3-Stripes, heel and section of the midsole. Housed within a sleek Bad Bunny-branded tote, the artist’s “El Ojo” and bunny graphics close out the ensemble at the spine and insoles.
The Bad Bunny x adidas Response CL “Black” is scheduled to release on June 24th for a retail price of $160. In the meantime, enjoy official imagery of the pair alongside our accompanying store list below.
