NFL Superstar Frank Gore Laces Up In Odd Taped And Modified Adidas X Boots
Dec 27, 2015, by Chris
This boot spot is truly one-of-a-kind. American football player Frank Gore, who plays for the Indianapolis Colts as running back, laced up in a strange-looking Adidas X Soccer Boot in the last two games. And while his boots not only looked strange because of a remarkable white tap, his cleats even feature a modified plate. So let's get straight into the details.
NFL Running Back Frank Gore Laces Up in Modified Adidas X Boots
Close-up picture of the boots worn by Frank Gore in today's match against Miami Dolphins.
Based on the regular edition of the black and white Adidas X 15.1 Boots, it looks like that Frank Gore opted for the leather edition of the Adidas X 15.1 for his right foot and the synthetic edition of the Adidas X 15.1 for his left foot. And while the most obvious modification of his boots is definitely the contrasting white tap he used to further increase the lockdown of the boots, there are at least two other modifications that also make the actual boots unique.
First, Frank Gore blacked out the mint green Adidas Performance logo on the heel area. Second, Frank Gore's Adidas X 15.1 Cleats very likely feature a custom sole plate that comes with six remarkable red studs (the standard edition of the Adidas X 15.1 comes with six white studs and otherwise also looks different).
And as there is no picture of his custom sole plate, the last thing that is quite interesting to note is that he used black tap when he debuted the boots against Houston Texas on December 20.
What do you think of the on-pitch impression of the Adidas X worn by Frank Gore? Let us know in the comments below.

Nike to Sell Long-Sleeve Besiktas Kits From 27-28 Season
Nike is set to introduce commercially available long-sleeve kits for Beşiktaş starting from the 27-28 season. Following the club's major switch from Adidas after 17 years, supporters will finally have direct access to official long-sleeve match jerseys at retail. Big thanks to @ertansuzgun & @Formaholic.
The timing aligns with significant milestone celebrations in Istanbul, as Nike is also planning a special 125th-anniversary collection for Beşiktaş during the 27-28 campaign to mark the club's foundation in 1903. Rather than relying on base layers and compression undershirts, players and fans alike will see dedicated long-sleeve designs included in the lineup.
The development forms part of Nike's wider strategy to bring back commercial long-sleeve authentic shirts across its elite roster from 27-28 onwards. By expanding long-sleeve availability to Beşiktaş, Nike closes the gap on rivals like Adidas and provides the Black Eagles with full top-tier treatment under their new partnership.
