For me its a total step in the opposite direction of what they went with for his first bespoke colorway. I liked the red/white. I thought it was visually distinct and classy without being gaudy. This is like Adidas's attempt to outdo the Nike CR range. I think Nike nails the colors they uses on the CR's boots as it reflects his playing style/attitude. When I think of Messi this boot does not come to mind.
They are not fake, they were made for the referees at the tournament but all I remember that they weren't made in adipure only the takedown model, so I dont know if these are adipure.
Name it as the 'SAMBA' collection Full-article of each is soon to be on the site with better pics! > http://gunt22.com/index.html *Adidas plan for something BIG for the upcoming WC2014. Some SPECIAL EDITIONS will be out by that time. I will keep you all updated later in detail about what these are and how they look like.
Well that clears up the writing on the inside of the shoes; it was samba, not sample Great post as always GUNT. Now let us know what material is being used for the upper on the new 11pro!
I might be able to sneak out some pictures of some of the new colorways that has not been leaked yet. There is some truely great colorways coming up
So Adidas is gonna keep the 1st generation Nitrocharge and 2nd generation Predator LZ until WC2014 is over (at least, if not longer)? As for the 2nd generation 11pros, I just don't feel you are getting your value for money with calf-skin leather.
Whats everyone's thoughts on the synthetic used on the current adizero compared to the leather? i'm really torn on what potential boots i should get for next season and I might just got for a simple looking f50, but I want some thoughts on both uppers first.. I originally had the white/pink/black leather first gen adizero, and liked them a lot
Well, I have decided to give the Predator LZ's a try, picked a pair up for cheap in the original launch colorway. ( $50 shipped). I hope they are as nice as some of you say they are, I really need a good synthetic boot since the pitches I've been playing on lately are far too wet to wear my Morelias.
First look at the 2014 UCL Final ball Edit: The Brazuca (WC 2014 ball) hasn't been shown yet, but the colours are white/dark blue/multicolour.
