There was another shoe from Adidas during the Champions League final apart from Adidas Ace 15.1 and Adidas X 15.1. It was Adidas Messi 15.1. Adidas named an entire football boot silo after Messi. Why did Adidas do that? Well, The Adidas Ace and X were designed for both chaotic and controlled footballers in the modern game. Those are your regular players and Messi is not your regular player, few even claim that he is from another planet entirely. A player like Messi needed a completely different football boot. Adidas collaborated with the Argentinian star to create this magnificent football boot, Adidas Messi 15.1. This boot is designed to ‘win everything.’
Icy blue is the launch colorway and it is spectacular. Metallic finish is a visual treat. The interesting part is that this football boot features neither the iconic three stripes nor the Adidas Performance logo. Rather, it features a black Adidas Messi logo on the heel area. The yellow studs are very dominant over the black outsole. Look inside the boot and you will find this.
The football boot features a super soft synthetic upper along with a 3D structure. The X-Ray surface makes your first touch an absolute pleasure. Adidas named this material as MessiTOUCH (this is just a feather in the cap, there is a lot more to this football boot). This material promises to offer all the advantages a leather upper can offer. Wait; there is more to this upper material. It does not absorb water like your regular leather football boot (Now, this is magic). If offers great levels of comfort and durability. It also features the MessiFRAME, a reinforced chassis to offer immense levels of stability along with unparalleled lockdown. This is very much similar to the X-CAGE of the Adidas X 15.1 football boots.
The stud pattern called as MessiPRINT is similar to the stud pattern of 2014 Adidas F50 Adizero. This unique stud pattern offers instant acceleration and amazing levels of traction on various playing surfaces. The MessiGAMETRAX outsole is great and offers precise control. The speed and agility levels of this football boot are mind-blogging (warning! Even with Adidas Messi 15.1, you may still fall short trying to outclass Messi).
The football boot weighs around 230g. Both the FG (Firm Ground) and AG (Artificial Grass) versions are available at the initial launch.
Like all other Adidas football boots released this summer. This football boot will also come in various tiers. The Messi 15.1 football cleat is the top tier model and other models are 15.2, 15.3 and 15.4. Adidas will soon launch both the turf and indoor versions of the football boot as well.
It retails at around $220 i.e. around 14,000 INR and is available at select online retailers for pre-order. These football boots will be available for purchase from July 1, 2015. Availability in India is TBA.
Bottom-line: One of a kind.
