F50
Originally released ahead of Euro 2004, it was on the feet of some of the world’s quickest players for the next decade, from a turbo-charged teenage Messi to prime Arjen Robben and Gareth Bale. Lethal finishers loved its combination of a lightweight feel and clean strike zone too, with the likes of David Villa, Lukas Podolski, Karim Benzema, and Luis Suarez choosing to lace up in various versions over the years.
Various is right – the F50’s back catalogue spans multiple generations with several significant innovations and redesigns. There was the Tunit concept with its interchangeable cleats and sockliners, giving every wearer the opportunity to “tune” the cleat to specific surfaces and personal preferences. The adizero iterations, including the Prime and 99g, as the 3-Stripes chased ultimate lightweight speed. The integration of the MiCoach data-tracking system. Experimentation with leather versus synthetics in the race for top performance. Wherever you look, the F50 has always been at the forefront of soccer cleat innovation.
Today, it’s all about raw pace. Designed for acceleration in every direction, the next-gen adidas F50 sets the benchmark for speed all over the field. Any player, any position: if it’s one on one, your opponent’s done.
adidas
The 3-Stripes’ pioneering outlook has seen them remain at the forefront of cleat design ever since founder Adi Dassler first started making footwear in the 1920s.
From longstanding leather classics like the World Cup and Copa Mundial to more modern innovations like the all-conquering Predator, their cleats are always built to combine comfort and performance.
The adidas range includes the X for speed, the Predator for control, and the Copa for touch. Whichever cleat suits your style, whether you like to lace up or go laceless, you’ll find options available for every type of surface and every level of play.

Ground Type Guide
Selecting the correct sole plate for the surface you are playing on is crucial, not only for the performance and longevity of your cleats, but also to avoid the risk of injury.
Using an outsole that isn't designed specifically for the surface on which you are playing may cause premature wear and/or damage that will not be deemed as a fault of manufacture and will prevent the retailer accepting them for a refund or exchange.
Indoor
Indoor surfaces are used for small-sided games such as 5-a-side and Futsal and are usually flat, extremely hard and unforgiving. Indoor outsoles (sometimes known as IN, IT – Indoor Trainer or IC – Indoor Court or Indoor Competition) use non-marking materials such as moulded gum rubber (can be clear or coloured) and provide cushioning, traction, flexibility and durability.
Indoor shoes use pivot points, flex grooves and herringbone patterns for optimum movement and traction.
