Adidas F50 adiZero in Metallic Silver/Bright Pink Released

Silver Pink F50 adiZero

Every so often we like to throw out one of the latest women’s colorways to see what the reaction is like and if they could potentially double as a men’s version. The latest offering in the women’s Adidas F50 adiZero range comes in this pretty blinging Metallic Silver/Bright Pink/Black. We have seen over the past 2 years how Pink colorways can be very popular with male players, and there is enough of a subtle Pink blend on this one to appeal to that same audience.

The big difference between the male and female version of the adiZero lies in the soleplate and how the upper to soleplate matches up. Feedback from players who have ordered female boots in the past has been positive, especially from players who prefer a slim fitting shoe. I haven’t gone as far as testing them myself, so I can’t offer precise comments on fit or shape.

Adidas adiPure 11Pro in Bright Blue/Infrared Released

adiPure 11Pro Bright Blue

Adidas has released their latest colorway in the Adidas adiPure 11Pro range, and there is something a little bit familiar about the look of this one. Listed as a Bright Blue/Running White/Infrared, this colorway follows the same combo of colors we have seen on other recent Adidas releases – and in my opinion this one is extremely sharp.

Other boots to feature a similar look/colorway combo to this release include the recently unleashed Predator LZ and the F50 adiZero. Each range offers its own take and mix but the one thing that is consistent is the positive feedback players have been sharing about the look. I have a strong feeling that this adiZero release will also receive a positive reaction from fans. Adidas has kept things pretty consistent throughout the history of the adiPure, but the 11Pro version strays well away from the norm. Not only has Adidas dropped the weight, but they also re-engineered everything that we expect from the adiPure!

Adidas Predator LZ in Super Pink/White Released

Predator LZ Hot Pink

Adidas are not a company that are afraid to push boundaries and they definitely don’t sit by the wayside after releasing a new boot. Case in point this new colorway release in the Adidas Predator LZ range – officially listed as a Super Pink/White/Black, and yes it definitely is a men’s boot! It is a radically different release from the initial colorways and offers players a very unmistakeable look on the field.

We have been anticipating this DB colorway’s release after David Beckham debuted them in style last weekend and they blended in with the Galaxy kit pretty well. Lets be honest, it is definitely a look that will only appeal to a certain taste and you have to be pretty brave to wear a pair. But having seen the extreme popularity of recent Pink releases, I have a feeling that these boots will do pretty well!

PUMA Special Edition Speed Boot

PumaSpeedChanger

Puma has just launched a very special and limited edition boot to the market, with only 50 of the unnamed speed boots available to purchase!

What a smart ploy this is by Puma! We regularly see players sporting blackout prototype boots, but Puma is taking it a step further by pre-releasing a limited number of eye-catching boots to really drive media attention ahead of the real boots impending release. Because of the unique pattern on the boot, it is extremely difficult to make out what they are all about – technically, they have nothing to lose.

What we do know about the new range is that they are a speed boot that weighs in at 6.4oz and it will feature a new monolayer microfiber upper. The stud configuration has also been radically altered from what we normally see on Puma releases.

Adidas Predator LZ Review

Adidas Pred LZ review

There are certain expectations that come with every new Adidas release, especially in the popular Predator range. Yet on this occasion and the Adidas Predator LZ (or Lethal Zones), Adidas has dramatically changed things up. The result is a boot built for 90 minutes of control rather than the much expected power. The design is very eccentric and the lightweight nature of the boot makes things even more confusing! I had the opportunity to take in the Predator LZ launch event in Los Angeles last week and it turned out to be a very educational experience. With that information in mind and having already worn the boots in 5 games, here are my thoughts on the new release. For testing, the extremely visual Blue/Red colorway was used in a size 9US.

What does LZ stand for?
LZ stands for Lethal Zones, or the 5 performance areas that sit across the upper. Each zone has been strategically positioned to help improve ball control, handling and feel for increased precision and accuracy with every touch. The five zones include: First Touch, Dribble, Sweet Spot, Drive and Pass.

Nike_Clash_Collection

Nike has just unleashed a new range of colorways called the “Nike Clash Collection” that will be used by players in the 2012 Euro Championships this summer. Each striking color design stands out on pitch and delivers performance engineering for some of the best players in the world.

Nike’s Vapor VIII, CTR360 Maestri II, T90 Laser IV and Tiempo Legend IV boots will feature a color clash design of traditional white with a bold second color signifying each boots style to stand out on pitch. As reference, nothing has changed on the boot performance wise, they have simply undergone an upgraded paint job.

For those interested, each boot in the collection is currently listed and available to pre-order on Soccer.com.

Nike Boots Clash Collection

“The clash of traditional white with very modern and youthful colors will make a really powerful and disruptive statement on pitch,” said Andrew Caine, Nike Global Creative Director for Football Footwear. “The Nike Clash Collection delivers highly engineered boots with sharp color contrast reflecting the clash of rivalries and competition we will see this summer. We’re celebrating that with distinctive and stand out color.”

We will be highlighting each new colorway throughout this week, with the range set to officially debut by Nike players in the Champions League Final in Munich this weekend.
