Jun 3, 2016, by Chris
Update: Even more pictures of the striking Solar Red Adidas X 16.1 boots have been leaked, giving us a better impression of the first Adidas X cleats for the 2016-17 season.
The red next-gen Adidas X 2016 Soccer Cleats introduce a striking design for the second generation of Adidas' Chaos Boot, set to be released in July 2016. In May 2015, Adidas revealed the first-ever Adidas X Football Boots. Made for players who create chaos on the pitch, the Adidas X silo was debuted in the 2015 Champions League Final and is headlined by players such as Luis Suárez, Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale.
Next-Gen Adidas X 16.1 Solar Red / Silver / Hi-Res Red
This is the second paint job of the next-generation Adidas X Boots.
For the second colorway of the Adidas X 2016 Boots, Adidas introduces an eye-catching design. The red Adidas X 2016 Football Boots combine the flashy main colors Solar Red and Hi-Res Red with a metallic silver Adidas logo on the outstep, while the instep boasts the X branding as well as the lettering 'TECHFIT'.
Adidas combines the clean design of the next-gen Adidas X 2016 Soccer Boots with a unique all-over print that symbolizes the speed of the silo. Apart from that, there are no other design elements in order to not break up the stunning red and silver look. So let's get into the tech side of the second generation of the Adidas X 2016 Boots.
Like the first generation of the Adidas Chaos Boot, the second-gen Adidas X 2016 Cleats feature a ultra-thin, one-piece synthetic upper for lightweight, a second-skin fit and ultimate ball control. But whereas the first-gen Adidas X 2016 Boots came with a remarkable X-cage in the midfoot area for more stability, the next-gen Adidas X 2016 Boots removes the trademark element of the first generation.
The red next-gen Adidas X 2016 Boots again feature a techfit collar for flexible ankle support. Compared to the first generation of the boots, the next-gen Adidas X 2016 Cleats come with a slightly higher collar.
The brand-new next-gen Adidas X 16.1 Boots feature a similar stud configuration as the first generation. Adidas added an arch in the midfoot area for increased stability and speed.
The red next-gen Adidas X 2016 Boots retail at a price of approximately 220 Euro (220 USD, 175 GBP) and will be available at selected retailers from July 2016.
What do you think of the second generation of the Adidas X Boots? Let us know in the comments below.

Following the release of their home shirt on July 1, Polish Ekstraklasa side Górnik Zabrze have officially unveiled their new 26-27 away kit.

Argentina 4-Star Logo Leaked
The 4-star logo that was prepared for Argentina ahead of the 2026 World Cup final has been leaked. As Argentina ultimately lost the match to Spain, this updated crest will never be used.
Notably, the two central stars are intended to be slightly larger than the outer ones, creating a subtle arched visual effect. Every star features the year of the victory - including one for 26.
Had Argentina secured the victory, this new logo would have been immediately used on celebratory merchandise and future kits. Instead, the national team will continue with their current 3-star badge.
CSKA Sofia 26-27 Away Kit Released

What a Disgrace: Adidas Uses AI For 2-Star Kit Images With Noteable Design Errors
Following Spain's victory at the 2026 World Cup, fans have rushed to the official Adidas Spain website to secure the updated two-star national team jersey. However, instead of using actual product photography for this historic release, Adidas.es has utilized an AI-generated image to showcase the new kit, resulting in highly noticeable design mistakes.
The AI-rendered images fail to accurately represent the actual Spain 26-27 kit, with several key details getting completely wrong. The most glaring issues include the iconic Three Stripes on the shoulders, which are rendered much smaller, like the old regular sized 3 stripes. The Adidas logo on the chest appears unusually small, closely resembling the brand's pre-2023 logo style rather than the current version.
For a monumental product celebrating Spain's second World Cup star, the reliance on inaccurate imagery falls well short of the usual standards expected from Adidas.
Adidas Spain 2026 World Cup Winners 2 Star Kit Edition Released

Spain 2-Star Crest Revealed: Side-by-Side Positioning
Following their victory at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Spain have earned the right to add a second star to their national team crest. The new star joins the one awarded for their 2010 triumph, marking the nation's second global title.
A detailed visual by Chuyện Áo Đấu provides a great look at the updated RFEF crest. The most important detail is the arrangement of the stars. Rather than stacking the second star above the original one, the two gold stars are positioned side-by-side directly above the traditional Spanish shield.
This side-by-side placement ensures a clean, symmetrical appearance for the crest. The updated two-star logo will become a permanent fixture on Spain's upcoming kits and apparel as they celebrate their status as two-time world champions.
