Red Next-Gen Adidas X 16.1 2016 Boots Leaked

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.

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.
