Stadios back in the day were the best. The versions since 2009 have sucked. Easy to take the symbol of so you had a black boot with the bright green sole.
Skizz has his #specialonce thing going on FB; as much as I am a United supporter, it makes me laugh every time.
so no players wearing adidas Copa 17 yet? it's a shame how adidas are treating their heritage silo, they've been doing that to the adiPure too. Look at Nike how they balance the number of players per silo, the Tiempo is worn by so many players.
Didn't quite a few players wear the first few adiPure models? From what I recall it seems like the 11Pro was the downfall of that style of boot for Adidas.
they launch 12/10 right? maybe we start seeing them this weekend. i'd almost bet money that jozy is wearing them in mls cup.
Of course I didn't mean the adiPure's were totally neglected, they weren't given to enough players, when adidas had 4 silos (Predator, F50, NitroCharge, adiPure) I think the percentage of adidas players using adiPure was less than 10%.
Didn't know about the launch being for tomorrow. I thought it was the same day when they officially released it. I hope we see this boot used by as many players as possible.
By the time the NitroCharge came out the adiPures had become the 11Pro - @An Unpaved Road was talking about the 3 original adiPure models,
Even then, the Predator and the F50 (adiZero) were more popular than the adiPure, by far. just compare the number (and percentage) of players wearing the adipure with the ones using Nike Tiempo. With Nike I see the 4 silos having equal numbers of players (maybe the Mercurial have slightly more players), and before when they were 3, it was the same. Also look at how Nike are (and always were) promoting the Tiempo with having a top player as a face of the silo (Now Gerard Pique and I forgot who was before him), also releasing some special editions for Ronaldinho, Pirlo and some other players gives you an idea of how they see and treat Tiempo. While adidas, they didn't pay enough attention to adiPure , including 11Pro which I consider as an adiPure boot. let's wait and see the list of players who will use Copa, and how they will promote it. Now the Trio of adidas are Bale, Messi & Pogba for the X, Messi & ACE boots consecutively. Let's see who will become the 4th horseman
Spotted Ander Iturraspe of Athletic Bilbao wearing Nike Legend Anti Clog version today in the game against Barca. You don't see many pros wearing this version.
