    They are, perhaps, Chinese; the secret to be a ninja they have.

    almost every sample boot is made in asia. i'm guessing theres a fair amount of product testers there also, just based on population. some one is bound to their hands on the boots

    This.

    Is it just me, or do the adiZero's look really, really uncomfortable?

    and don't forget.. everything is Made in China. And probably not by one single factory.

    product testers, workers in those factory, friends of those factory, family of those factory, etc.

    blah, I wish my dad made soccer boots instead of toy cars. lol

    As far as I know the black and yellow is supposed to be a leather colorway only. They looked like synthetic....I wonder if Europe/Asia will get a black synthetic?

    I don't think they look any less comfortable than the very first Vapor, they have a very similar heel area.

    A local store owner who actually got to hold a pair and try one on when an Adidas rep brought them in a few weeks back said they fit like the vapor II with a betterr heel. And IMO most of adidas boots have had a perfect heel, they seem to have mastered the heel of boots, something nike has yet to do IMO although i wear nike the heel is always the issue while when i wear adidas there is no issue beside the occcasional problem with the adipure heel being to low..

    i have to agree, theres is nothing wrong with nike heels but adidas have mastered them and are alot better! but the new adizeros look really cheap, all we can do is hope they look better when we get our hands on them!

    I honestly think the AdiZeros will be very comfortable, seeing as Adidas decided to get rid of their TunIt bs this will be like top tier F30s. From my experience F30s are comfortable no matter what, my only problem with them was durability.

    im sure the adizero will not be kangaroo leather...most likely it will be a full grain leather or calf leather like on the other f50 boots

    Ya.. I noticed that a while back too when he had the Tungsten chamber in his Predator X boots. I wish the X's commercially available had the white bottom/cleats instead of black. I know you can do it at miadidas.com but I ain't paying no $100 more just for that.

    Also, I'm surprised he's not wearing the adidas PowerWeb compression shorts under his regular shorts...

    Its amazing how many people complain about vapor city, yet post the pictures that they found on his site on here..If you were that worried about what he does, you wouldnt be going to his site to find the most recent pictures..For the record im not agreeing with what he does, but seriously, if you are going to post pictures that YOU first saw on HIS site, the stop b*tching about his site.. Anyways, back to boots;)

    No to be fair someone posted a link to enjoyz on page 43 of this thread, the adizeros were on enjoyz thats where he's got them from. We b*tch about his site because he steals everyones pics and passes them off as his own!

    I saw the enjoyz pictures on here yesterday. No, I am saying ISC22 posted pictures on this site from vapor city, and then complained about vapor city. My point is if you are going to complain abut a site so much, then why do you still go there AND post picture from there with their watermark(even though there is a link to watermark free pics here)? If your that concerned and are going to complain about somone being a "@$$H0L3" but still go there to find recent pics?

    Hey lets settle down, ISC22 was trying to contribute, but atomicskiracer does have a valid point. No one likes his (vapor-city-f50) french ass, we all know that, but we are just trying to contribute (just put a big black box over his watermark, but don't take credit for the picture)

    That's a totaly unreasonable point, it's only reasonable when for example you complain about a tv show you hate and still watch it, nobodys complaining about his site, we're complaining about the little watermark he puts on pics that aren't his, it's like if someone said they hate the that bigsoccer has a dull grey banner and you told em not to visit the site because theres one thing they hate about it.

    For what it's worth, I agree with atomic. If we all hate that frenchy's site, why promote it on here? That's what it comes down to. He gets more traffic because of some of us going on it. I can honestly say I've been to his site less than 3 times and I absolutely hate it. It's unorganized and looks like something a 9 year old made. Back to the point. The pictures of adiZeros that ISC posted we have already seen from the enjoyz link someone posted earlier - much better pictures too. I mean, if there is something on the frenchy's site that he has watermarked, you can bet that someone has already posted it online and he just put his watermark on it, so finding it somewhere else wouldn't be hard. Just my 2 cents.
