Why It Matters: “This campaign celebrates our fans,” Messi said in a statement. “Music is connected to many aspects of my life, and Bad Bunny is an artist who is never missing from my playlist,” he continued. Bad Bunny, whose handwritten signature appears as “Benito” on the pair, said “I compare the love he feels for his country and his sport to the love I feel for music and Puerto Rico,” on his respect for Messi. In the spirit of the boundary-breaking collaboration, which brings the energetic worlds of music and sports together, the final result is a dynamic duo comprising both a classic silhouette and a field-ready cleat.

Why It Matters: A boot like no other, the classic 1460 boot is made for experimentation. For the past 60 years, the legacy staple has revolutionized footwear. First advancement is an updated “Bouncing Sole” extended up to the puritan stitch line for water protection. The boot’s upper blends a highly water-resistant Newlands leather with a breathable fleece lining, ensuring weather protection in even the toughest conditions. Though these features were made for wear and tear, aesthetically, the signature shoe has become a canvas for innovation and inspiration for the brand. Subverting the 1460 as we know it, and elevating it with maximalist features, the 14XX Sub Boot has a modular design accented by a bold, distorted print.

Why It Matters: In early October, our grassroots running group laced up adidas’ latest speed-inspired shoe for their monthly after-work meetup of 3-5 mile runs. For the fast training runs, the Adizero Evo SL supplied style and support, the latter in the form of the full-length high-stack Lightstrike Pro midsole. As the group gained speed during their rapid running session to and from the East River and across the Manhattan Bridge, the sleek silhouette’s bold black stripes – adidas’ signature symbol – blurred with each stride. A minimalist model, the Adizero Evo SL’s design details go beyond the soft surface. Aside from crisp, clean lines and a white finish – inspired by the road racing aesthetic of the Adizero Adios Pro Evo 1 – the Adizero Evo SL takes the title as the lightest trainer in adidas’ inventory of running shoes.
