I'm also referring to the new Ace 16.1, 16.1 PK, 16.1 pure control the upcoming Xs, gloros etc. Nike has had some big flops like the hyper venom 2s...the new magista and merc leaks look rather underwhelming as well. Nike was 100% bossing Adidas for a while too. It's cyclical.
I really don't think it's a stretch to say that the majority Adidas boots look pretty similar over the past 6 - 8 years.
Put me on bro, I'm looking to ditch these asap. I saw that ****'s has the Tiempo Legacy for $80. I was tempted but I feel like I can go lower than that
Those Pogba Pure Control are aight...nothing special He should have something crazier considering the flamboyant haircuts he get PM'ed
If you're talking about national team kits...after this next international break, so I'm guessing mid-April?(not sure)
People don't realize that adidas hasn't done that well with the new boots The X is customized for every professional that wears it. No one wears the stock version because of how bad the upper is. The pure control still isn't worn by big names that are sponsored to wear them (James Rodriguez). The prime knit first run of the X was not well received either. For everything adidas is "innovating" its really not that great. Now all that to say not like nike is crushing it. The whole mid cut design wasn't really picked up by the pros. and the hypervenom 2 def seemed like a step back...but boy those new superflys that were debuted yesterday are looking fierce. To me Nike's biggest innovation right now is the flyknit upper in general and the AG stud plate. At least here in the states nike is really the only company putting time and effort into AG models. Adidas slaps FG/AG onto the boots but is working on an AG only stud plate. Like ok we know that you can do better so lets just not say yes they are great for AG too when they are FG boots. Its definitely a healthy competition

I said this in the official football thread, but I wanna ask this here. How is it that the majority of MLS players play on artificial grass week in amd week out, yet they only wear firm ground soleplates throughout the season? Totally unrelated, but I would **** the ish out of Toni Duggan
Welp...I know most don't like them but I think they are decent USM/WNT Kits 2016 Home Spoiler: More images 2016 Away
I agree with this. I think Nike really had a big advantage for the last few years...and before that Adidas was on fire with the f50 adizero. Nike has been a bit complacent since 2014 honestly. Agreed the hyper venom 2 are a big step back. The fact that Neymar actually went back to the mercs for a while wasn't a good look. I think the new Ace range from Adidas is fantastic...the X was good for some but not so great for me personally. The new model looks like they're making big strides. There's for sure very healthy competition between the two companies.
