Feb 11, 2016, by Chris
Update: New picture leaked. The blue Adidas Ace 2016 Football Boots introduce a stunning design for the next-generation of the Adidas Ace Cleats, set to be released in April 2015.
In January 2016, Adidas launched the second generation of the Adidas Ace with a striking Solar Green paint job. Made for ultimate control, the Adidas Ace 2016 Boots introduce a brand-new upper and sole plate design for the football boot worn by players such as Mats Hummels and Javi Martínez.
Adidas Ace 16.1 Shock Blue / Semi Solar Slime / White
This is the new blue Adidas Ace 2016 Soccer Boots Colorway.
The blue Adidas Ace 2016 Soccer Boots combine the fresh main color 'Shock Blue' with white and green for the big Three Stripes to create a clean but remarkable design. The bold 3 stripes on the outstep and the instep of the blue Adidas Ace 2016 Cleats boast the trademark color gradient design of the next-gen Adidas Ace Boots.
The Shock Blue next-gen Adidas Ace 2016 Soccer Cleats offer the same features as the Solar Green launch colorway of the Adidas Ace 16.1 Boots.
Most remarkably, the Adidas Ace 16.1 2016 Football Boot introduce a totally new structure for the upper. The upper of the blue Adidas Ace 16.1 2016 Boots merges three synthetic layers for perfect ball control and touch. But Adidas does not only introduce a brand-new upper material for the next-generation of the Adidas Ace, Adidas' designers also developed a totally new sole plate.
Ditching the previous construction altogether, the new sole plate of the Adidas Ace 16.1 Boots features 11 traditional rounded studs and an arch in the midfoot area for increased stability. The Shock Blue Adidas Ace 2016 Cleats also come with a new external heel counter for more lockdown and instant acceleration.
The Shock Blue / Semi Solar Slime / White Adidas Ace 16.1 2016 Football Boots retail at a price of 210 Euro (200 USD, 150 GBP) and will be available as FG / AG and SG version, while the German brand will launch a separate AG version for the first time.
We love this colorway. What's your take on the blue next-gen Adidas Ace 16.1 Boots? Let us know in the comments section below, and also check out the all-new Adidas Ace 2016 Primeknit Boots.
FIFA ASEAN Cup Features Same Left-Sleeve Kit Badge as in 2026 FIFA World Cup Final
The opening match between Laos and Brunei provided a full reveal of the sleeve patch pairing for the inaugural FIFA-organized Southeast Asian tournament.
Moving away from the previously expected navy blue, the official tournament patches feature a clean white base. Most notably, the "Football Unites the World" sleeve patch on the left arm is the exact same design that made a single, exclusive appearance at the recent World Cup Final between Spain and Argentina.

Grêmio Announce Pitaco as New Front-of-Shirt Sponsor
Grêmio Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense have officially announced Pitaco as their new principal front-of-shirt sponsor. The three-year agreement sees the Brazilian sports platform take over the prime central chest position on the club's New Balance jerseys. This long-awaited deal ends a vacancy of roughly ten months for the Tricolor Gaúcho's main shirt sponsor slot following the early termination of their previous deal with Alfa Bet in late 2025.
Originally established as a fantasy sports company before expanding into regulated sports betting under the international Draftea group, Pitaco will feature across Grêmio's kits through 2029. The partnership is reportedly valued between 40 million and 46 million Brazilian Real per year (around 8 million USD/year) , totaling around 140 million Real across the entire three-year period, placing Grêmio's uniform among the five most valuable commercial shirts in Brazilian football.
The white Pitaco logo and wordmark sit directly across the middle of the iconic blue, black, and white striped kit, joining existing partners such as Banrisul, Coral, and Havan. Grêmio are scheduled to debut the newly branded shirts immediately in upcoming Campeonato Brasileiro matches.
