Lionel Messi to debut custom Adidas Pibe de Barr10 Boots
Messi trains in custom Adidas Messi Pibe de Barr10 Boots.
As Messi prefers the feel of natural leather, the custom Adidas Messi Pibe de Barr10 Boots have a leather forefoot area with a distinctive stitching for a long lasting fit.
To create a leather-like synthetic retail version of the Adidas Messi Pibe de Barr10 boot, Adidas removed the shiny 3D Dribbletex print from the Hybridtouch upper of the standard Adidas Messi Pibe de Barrio Football Boots. Hybridtouch combines the feel of natural leather with no water uptake.

Visually, the retail version boasts a unique graphic design, while Messi's custom outsole is solid black.
