I was wondering if you guys could help me out. I'm trying to figure out all the colorways that came out for the original adipure I. Let me know if i'm missing a colorway!

Black/White
white/Black
Photo Blue/White
Silver/Black
Blackout
White/Royal
UCL Colorway

Thats it right?

 

sounds right

 

just picked up some pred x's in the black/white/electricity colourway, and on the tag it says they are sample's and made in germany. my other ones are made in indonesia and the leather is much more rigid and seemingly worse quality. anyone elses preds made in germany?

 

my powerswerves say engineered in Germany in them, if that says anything? i think the tongue says made in indonesia tho

 

the "engineered in germany" means nothing. im pretty sure all adidas shoes are "engineered in germany"

 

Pretty sure they just mean the research was done in Germany for the shoe itself...They were probably made somewhere where labor is cheap...

 

thought so.

I'm going to make a new colorway

 

Can you elaborate a little more? I am curious...

 

Well I recently grabbed a pair of Adipure I's. The UCL colorway. Navy blue with silver stripes. Its the only adipure I colorway that i find hideous..(sorry its just that it reminds me of the Seattle Seahawks and i f*cking hate them with a passion).

Basically I see potential with these boots. They are k-leather which gives me confidence that any leather paint will stick on pretty damn well. The question is going about what color I want. The easiest and laziest way would be to black them out. (boring). Or to black out everything but the silver studs and silver stripes. So black/silver. I was leaning towards doing that.

But I like flashy boots/clean look. I really want a red adipure. But for that i would have to prime them with a white coat first. Dunno if that would hold up well.

My choices of customizing are
Red/White
Black/Silver
Brown

I fell in love with the brown adipure II colorway. But i hated the II's so i never got em. But I'd love to try dying my adipure brown..

The way I see it, if the other colors turn out unsuccessful, I can always black them out. Basically last resort.

Thoughts?

 

Just ordered mine adidas adiPowers White/Black/Blue for $153. When I went to order them, it said they wouldn't be shipped out until late June but when I received the confirmation email it said they are "in-stock." So I guess I'll find out soon enough if they come with the rest of the package.

 

Other than that, is there any diference from the regular adizero ? I can get a pair for 59$. and i think they are beautiful !

 

they have a front stud which to my knowledge is banned in football. that is the fg. sg is the same just change the studs to football ones and your good to go

 

where do you get them for soo cheap??!?!

 

I am in need of a pair of SG's anyways. But i just hope that the material is not completely diferent than that of the normal synthetic adizeroes.

 

They look to be more like f30's or whatever the 2nd tier adizeros are called than adizero's/F50's. Checkout the "heel counter" is just some stitched-on material and not hard plastic that is connected to the sole plate.

A toe stud is banned, but those boots don't have a toe stud. Take a look.

 

Well, the one Mattjv linked is the f30 version, if you look further down on the page you will see the f50.

 

Does anyone know the actual release date of the adiPower's in Europe. On PDS it says August 1st. I thought they were supposed to be out now, aren't they out in the US?
