# Hybrid Sprint Sneakers Bad Bunny x adidas F50 Ghost Sprint "Charcoal" Arrives By Amy Duong | Published 2026-08-06 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bad-bunny-x-adidas-1 References: [adidas](http://adidas.com/)  [Bad Bunny](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gazelle-indoor-2) x [adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ballerina-sneaker) [F50 Ghost Sprint](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/f50-ghost-sprint) "Charcoal" concludes the collaborative silhouette with its most understated colorway to date, following the earlier "Dark Marine" and "Solar Slime" releases. The hybrid design combines football boot styling with early-2000s running shoe influences, featuring a deep brown and charcoal mesh upper reinforced by a grey structural cage. Dark red branding appears near the toe with "adidas para Bad Bunny" text and F50BB lettering, while two lace options provide interchangeable styling. An off-white outsole and sculpted heel introduce contrast against the darker upper, highlighting the shoe's layered construction and performance-inspired proportions. The design continues the collaboration's blend of sport and lifestyle aesthetics while expanding on the F50 Ghost Sprint silhouette with muted tones and technical detailing. Bad Bunny x adidas F50 Ghost Sprint "Charcoal" releases in Fall 2026 through adidas and selected retailers with a retail price of $160.
