The upcoming Bad Bunny x Adidas Adizero SL 72 collaboration includes three colorways of the old-meets-new model, which makes its debut in this collection. The shoe blends two distinct eras of Adidas running shoes by combining the bottom half of the Adizero Neftenga, a 2000s-era performance runner, with the top of the more retro SL 72. <\/p>\n

The mesh of the Adizero model has been left with a raw edge as it switches to the nylon construction of the SL 72. The hybrid shoe almost looks as if the two individual models have been stitched together, resulting in a juxtaposed look that is both classic and modern at the same time.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n To further emphasize the conjoined aesthetic, two of the collaboration\u2019s colorways feature heavily contrasting colors: one shifts from maroon nylon on the SL 72 components to a bright orange mesh, while another combines a royal blue nylon top with the tennis ball-like neon yellow Adizero Neftenga shade reminiscent of what was seen on Wales Bonner\u2019s recent collaboration<\/a>. The project\u2019s third colorway takes a much more conservative direction, combining white and off-white shades with blue branding for a (mostly) matching look.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The public’s first glimpse at the Bad Bunny x Adidas Adizero SL 72 came in November, when Olympic sprinter Noah Lyles wore the white colorway at the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix.\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/footwearnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/72ca1db721cf66186e0b8feb80dc0e7872855e7d-2000x1250-1.png?w=1024\")
