Adidas Gloro 16.2
This is the next-gen Adidas Gloro 16.2 Soccer Cleat.
The second generation of the Adidas Gloro Boots introduces a brand-new design for the Adidas Gloro, inspired by the look of the next-gen Adidas Gloro 16.1 Boots. The Adidas Gloro 16.2 Boots features a classic Adidas design with Three Stripes on the outstep and the instep, while the heel area comes with the lettering Gloro.
Like the first generation, the Adidas Gloro 16.2 Football Shoe is released in four unique colorways. The black Adidas Gloro 16.2 Boots combine the classic colors black and white with striking yellow design elements to create a fresh look, whereas the white Adidas Gloro 16.2 Cleats feature Silver Metallic 3 stripes and light green design elements.
The red Adidas Gloro 16.2 combines the main color Vivid Red with black and white applications, while the Shock Blue Adidas Gloro 16.2 Boot boasts red laces.
Tech-wise, the Adidas Gloro 16.2 Boots are identical to the first generation of the Adidas Gloro, despite small changes in the construction of the boots. The low-priced Adidas Gloro 16.2 Boots feature a standard leather-like synthetic Freekick upper and a Traxion sole plate for Firm Ground surfaces.
Unlike the top-tier model, the Adidas Gloro 16.2 Soccer Shoes are also available with sole plates for turf (TF) and indoor court (IC) surfaces.
The Adidas Gloro 16.2 Football Boots retail at a price of just 50 Euro (40 GBP), while the boots are not available in the United States.

J.League x Pokémon: 60 Clubs, 60 Pokémon
The J.League has announced one of its most creative collaboration yet, teaming up with Pokémon for the 'Pokémon J.League Fest 'EVOLUTION!'' campaign ahead of the 2026-27 season.
All 60 clubs across J1, J2 and J3 have been paired with their own Pokémon, with the campaign following each Pokémon's evolution throughout the season across official artwork, graphics and promotional content.
The collaboration also celebrates 30 years of Pokémon (1996-2026) while building excitement for the new J.League campaign, which kicks off on 7 August.
Fans attending matches will receive one of one million exclusive EVO BAGs, each featuring Pikachu alongside the home club's partner Pokémon.
This isn't the first crossover between the two either. Back in 2014, the J.League and Pokémon launched the Family Join Days campaign, where young supporters received exclusive Pikachu trading cards at stadiums.
If your favorite club could be paired with any Pokémon, which one would you choose? Let us know in the comments below.
Hoffenheim Call Out Twitter Accounts Promoting Fake Kits
German club TSG Hoffenheim has taken a humorous approach to address a growing trend on social media involving the promotion of counterfeit football shirts. The club's official account posted a sarcastic message mimicking the exact language used by accounts that advertise fake kits. The post claimed to have found a really cool site for authentic shirts of top quality and insisted the endorsement was entirely voluntary, before directing users to a link in the replies.
Instead of linking to a counterfeit retailer, Hoffenheim's reply simply provided the URL to their official club shop. The joke directly targets a widespread practice on social media where various football-focused accounts promote unauthorized replica stores. In exchange for posting these scripted advertisements, the account owners typically receive a small number of free fake kits, valued at around 35 Euros, rather than monetary compensation.
