Mar 22, 2016, by Pat
The third colorway of the laceless Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl football boots brings an understated-yet-modern look to the futuristic silhouette. Officially launched today, the new Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl cleat is blue with white Three Stripes and subtle accents in light green.
Adidas presented the all-new Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl boots to the public in November 2015, before unveiling a bold first colorway in January, labeled Solar Green / Shock Pink / Core Black.
Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl - Shock Blue / Semi Solar Slime / White
This is the third Adidas Ace PureControl 2016 boot colorway.
Just like the first two Adidas Ace 2016 PureControl paint jobs, the Shock Blue laceless Adidas Ace football boots feature a straightforward design. Mostly blue, the third Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl cleats come with bold lateral Adidas stripes in white, while Semi Solar Slime, a light green, is used for the front pull tab and the bottom of the studs.
Unlike all the other premium versions of the Adidas Ace 16, the Adidas stripes only appear on the outside and also don't feature an inner gradient. The inside of the blue Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl is solid blue.
In order to offer a cleaner touch and pure ball control, the all-new Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl boots do away with any sort of traditional lacing and instead only boast an extension of the heightened collar in the place where the lace would be in a standard soccer boot.
Other than that, the Shock Blue Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl soccer boots feature a Primeknit upper and are comparable to the Adidas Ace 16.1 Primeknit boots. For more Adidas Ace 16 PureControl tech details, check out our in-depth analysis.
The stunning blue Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl football boots are available at select stockists for $300 (300 €, £250) from today.

Concept: What If World Cup Winners Wore Special Badges on Club Kits?
A creative concept visualized by Bleacher Report has sparked discussion among kit enthusiasts, posing an intriguing question: what if players who have won the FIFA World Cup were allowed to wear a special champion badge on their club kits? Under current FIFA equipment regulations, only reigning national team champions and Club World Cup winners are permitted to sport the official FIFA Champions Badge, but bringing an individual achievement patch to the club stage introduces a bold twist to modern shirt details.
The mockups feature World Cup winners wearing a sleek, gold trophy silhouette on their kit sleeves stamped with the year of their international triumph. The concept envisions players like Lionel Messi donning a 2022 patch on his Inter Miami shirt, Kylian Mbappé carrying a 2018 badge in Real Madrid white, and Rodri sporting a 2026 mark. It serves as an immediate visual marker of football's ultimate honor, staying with the player regardless of their club transfers.
In reality, domestic leagues and confederations enforce strict uniform guidelines that limit sleeve real estate almost entirely to league badges, sleeve sponsors, and charitable campaign logos. While regulatory hurdles make such a badge virtually impossible in professional football, the visualization offers a clean and compelling look at how personal legacy could be integrated into club kits.
Inter Milan 26-27 Third Kit Debuted

The centerpiece of the design is a prominent black horizontal chest band accented by a thin 'Blue Spark' lower stripe. Bright 'Speed Yellow' details are applied to the Swoosh, the two-starred club crest, the Betsson.sport sponsor, and retro-styled 1990s font names and numbers.
