Cool, cool and cool are probably the three words needed to describe these new white-out adidas adipure 11Pro football boots! One of the purest looking boots you're ever likely to see, adidas have really raised the bar with this new release!
As the boot world gears up for Euro 2012, adidas already have one eye beyond and are catering for fans heading into the 2012/13 season. This next release continues to take the adipure range into new territory, as adidas combine technology, craftsmanship and style.
Unlike black-out releases that adidas have continued to successfully deliver over recent years, we're rarely treated to an all-white release. White-out football boots rarely make it out of the design studio, let alone into the market as an official release!
The last all-white boot we saw hit stores was the limited edition Puma PowerCat 1.12 - a boot that didn't hang around for long. We expect the same to apply for the new White/White/Black adiPure 11Pro!
A soft leather material offers comfort and ball feel for the likes of Bastian Schweinsteiger and Frank Lampard. Adidas utilise their Taurus leather on the 11Pro - a success on the Predator range. Aided by an ultra thin coating to protect the upper in the main kicking areas, it makes the adipure 11Pro a more durable shoe.
Quite radically for what has become famed as an all leather boot, adidas have interrupted the Taurus leather upper with a midfoot synthetic saddle. The anatomically shaped saddle, featuring the 3-Stripes, provide the adipure 11Pro football boots with excellent midfoot stability.
Comfort is provided by an anatomically moulded EVA insole, similar to the one featured in the adipure IV, but with the benefit of flexzones in the forefoot to assist movement and improve fit. A soft suede synthetic leather lining provides additional comfort, whilst reducing any foot movement within the boots for a more secure fit.
The Sprintframe construction features a more conical stud shape when compared to the f50, and is a one-piece lightweight engineered outsole which provides a balance between lightweight, acceleration and stability. Such was adidas' confidence in the performance benefits of the revolutionary Sprintframe, that each silo now accommodates the lightweight outsole.
The adiPure may have begun life as a no nonsense football boot, offering high-quality with a traditional old-school feel. But fast forward five years since the boots release and adidas have merged heritage with modern innovation through the brands miCoach technology engineered into the outsole.
Sticking a computer chip inside the adiPure outsole chamber may make the boot less pure, but adidas are continuing to take huge strides in radically overhauling their boot ranges. The benefit of which is to analyse your performance data, as the miCoach Speed Cell measures and stores - time, distance, speed, speed zones and number of sprints during a training session or a match.
Available to pre-order now ahead of their full-release on June 25th, the White/White/Black adidas adipure 11Pro football boots are only available to exclusive stockists, and are expected to retail globally at around £125 GBP / €150 EURO / $150 USD.
