    New colorway for Women's Adizero Take down f10 model on prosoccer.com:
    [​IMG]

    I guess they will soon release the first tier grade sooner or later. As much as I hate pink, IMO I think this is a fair color. At least better than Nike's green/yellow colorway for their women's vapor.

    Not really at all. And their MSRP is pure bs. Adidas boots anyway. If you live in the US, soccer.com is the way to go.

    In the UK - I haven't seen LZs as low as £60, so technically, they are very cheap.

    I don't understand what adidas is trying to pull with their MSRPs. I mean, Copas straight from their website are $120 not including shipping, so in the end you'll probably end up paying over $130. Or you could go to Dicks or Academy where they're $90 year round.

    Not sure if this has been mentioned... no MiCoach on Bale's adiZeros.

    Great spot - Pros dont really need micoach as clubs have their own ways of testing fitness and distance covered etc. I'm not really a huge fan of micoach to be honest but dont want to take the thread off topic.

    Like Jon said the lowest i have seen LZs in the UK is around £80 they dont seem to want to drop the price even on the older colourways.

    Micoach is a bit of a gimmick anyway. I don't think amateur, youth and non league players would use it because I doubt they're mostly part time and can't be bothered. The people who would use it are at a higher level who have sports scientists and statistic guys with better technology. Does anyone on here actually use it?


    The LZ's are down to £79 in the sports direct where I stay but not the Steven Gerrard colorway or the black out so I'm not touching them.

    Which colourways are that price? Orange and blue/orange?

    My first miCoach chip broke which was really rubbish (glad i didnt pay for it) and then I just couldnt be bothered to use the other ones i had. I think its a good concept but its too expensive for amateur players to use and thats the main market Adidas should be aiming it at because like you said, Pro players aren't going to bother using it when they have the worlds best sports scientist at the club.

    At first I was wondering, why Adidas release a synthetic version for the Messi collection, because everyone knows Messi's prefering the leather version of the F50.

    Finaly the answer is, that Adidas developed a new Sprintskin called DUALMAX- Synthetic. As they promote the new Sprintskin have a leather look and it makes sure that the boot is still light and have a natural balltouch.

    So lets see how this upper material works for Messi

    I have mine and use it all the time. As I was (and still am) recovering from my ACL I use when I go running. I have a pair of turf boots that have the miCoach pocket in there so I'll use once I get back to indoor. As far as outdoor, I'll use it every game for sure. Few of my teammates have it as well so we compare our stats all the time. I didn't pay for mine either, which makes it easier to say that I love it I suppose but I think it's a great tool.

    I don't think Messi will use this upper. I can't believe they aren't bringing out a leather version, although I kinda saw it coming...

    Does anyone know if messi's balon d'or boots were this DUALMAX or just leather without the quilted stiching?

    Very nice. I love that colorway but it would get destroyed so quick on the black sand pits we call pitches here.

    Really nice whiteouts!

    I have to ask, i know they have little dots on if you look at them closely, but what are Adidas doing releasing a navy blue colourway that from a distance looks almost identical to the black/green? Its a nice colourway but you think they would of held off releasing it for a few months.

    Ha... nice boots cesc. Mine are a tiny bit different. ;)

    I just busted these babies out the other day. First time playing since my ACL surgery. They felt great. Soft on the touch and extremely comfortable. Glad I didn't get rid of them. Sorry about the sideway picture. Not sure why it pasted it that way.

    I always find Whiteouts to be much brighter than pretty much any other football boot.
