Following their official launch by Adidas, Lionel Messi has given an on-pitch debut to his latest signature boots, the Adidas F50 "Fútbol y Familia", in action with Inter Miami. Having previously trained in the unreleased pair, the Argentine icon laced up the striking red edition for the first time in an official match.
The "Fútbol y Familia" edition features an eye-catching Lucid Red, Core Black, and Pure Ruby color palette inspired by Messi's formative years at Newell's Old Boys and his Argentine roots. The design takes heavy nostalgia-driven cues from the 2000s F50 era, particularly the classic F50.6 TUNIT, incorporating an integrated lace cover over the instep alongside black Three Stripes outlined in white.
As usual with Messi's match-worn pairs, the boots featured bespoke personal details. The inner collar is inscribed with the names and dates of his family members, including his wife Antonela and son Ciro, while his signature logo sits prominently on the lace cover. The boots are available at select retailers as Messi's main club model for the 26-27 campaign.
