Bad Bunny and Adidas are continuing their successful collaboration with a new version of the Forum Low. The German brand and the Grammy-award-winning artist are celebrating Puerto Rican hoops. The upcoming Bad Bunny x Adidas Forum Low “Cangrejeros” colorway honors the Puerto Rican basketball team Los Cangrejeros de Santurce. Furthermore, Bad Bunny is also co-owner of the basketball team.
Recently, Adidas made an enormous appearance at All-Star Weekend. The brand showcased many of its upcoming 2023 products in Salt Lake City. According to the Adidas website the Adidas x Bad Bunny collaboration is an extension of Bad Bunny’s creative vision, from Puerto Rico to the world.

The collab is a perfect way to continue their collaboration as Adidas and Adidas Basketball celebrate their on-court heritage. The Adidas Forum continues to take over the spotlight for the Three Stripes brand. Additionally, adorned on the shoe are the Los Cangrejeros de Santurce logos and signature orange, navy, and cream colorway. Written on the signature velcro straps are the words “Santurce” and “Cangrejeros” in orange. Decorated on the dual tongues is the basketball crab logo. Other highlights of the shoe include three different lace color options including grey, navy blue, and orange. Elsewhere, the years 2000, 2001, 2003, and 2007 embellished the shoe’s midsoles. These years represent the team’s eight championships. In addition, drawstring detailing decorates the back of the shoe adding an extra streetwear flare to the sneaker.
Equally important, the shoe label recently suffered a severe commercial loss, as a result of the dissolution of Kanye West and Adidas’ partnership. It brings up the question of whether the Puerto Rican superstar will fill in the void and legacy left by Ye. Moreover, the collaboration has already been quite successful for both the shoe label and the artist. There is no doubt that Bad Bunny might be next in line for the Adidas throne. The Bad Bunny x Adidas Forum Low “Cangrejeros” sneakers are expected to release in 2023 on the Adidas website and select retailers. A date and price point have not been officially announced. You can keep an eye out for updates on our website.
