No More Modified Boots | Keylor Navas Debuts Standard Adidas Ace
Feb 22, 2016, by Chris
Update: Keylor Navas has switched to non-modified Adidas Ace 16.1 Boots after he previously famously became the first player to cut off the collar of the Adidas Ace 16+ Primeknit Boots that were released in early February 2016.

Keylor Navas' non-modified Adidas Ace 16.1 Boots
Real Madrid goalkeeper Keylor Navas has become the first player to modify the brand-new next-gen Adidas Ace Primeknit Boots after he debuted a non-modified version of the boots last week. He previously already cut off the Dynamic Fit collar of his Nike Magista Obra Boots before he made the switch to the Three Stripes and their Adidas X Boots during the season (big thanks to Mario Mejía for the spot).

The close-up picture reveals that Keylor Navas cut off the collar of his Solar Green Adidas Ace 16+ Primeknit Boots in a similar fashion as he already put off the collar of the Nike Magista Obra. Apart from the fact that he cut off the collar, Keylor Navas' custom boots are the same as the regular edition of the next-gen Adidas Ace 16+ Primeknit Soccer Cleats.
The next-gen Solar Green Adidas 16.1 Primeknit Soccer Boots feature a knitted upper and a totally redesigned outsole. You can find more about all top versions (four in total) of the boots here.

Silkeborg IF 26-27 Kits Released
The new Silkeborg IF 2026-27 kits have been officially released today during a special launch event at JYSK park. Made by Adidas, the new Silkeborg Idrætsforening shirts will be worn in the upcoming Danish Superliga campaign.
The Silkeborg 26-27 Kits are based on the Adidas Tiro 26 competition template. The JYSK sponsor logo dominates the look too much in our opinion.
Excelsior Rotterdam 26-27 Home Kit Released
Dutch club Excelsior Rotterdam has officially unveiled its new home kit for the 2026-27 season. Made by Robey Sportswear, the new shirt introduces a fresh design for the upcoming campaign while staying true to the club's traditional black and red colors.
The release of the home kit follows the earlier launch of Excelsior's elegant champagne-colored 2026-27 away jersey, which features subtle tributes to the Kralingen district's coat of arms.
The Robey Excelsior Rotterdam 2026-27 home kit will be available through the club's official retail channels ahead of the new season.
Too Much? Turkish Teams Have Side Kit Sponsors
Fenerbahçe's and Beşiktaş' 2026-27 kits have drawn criticism from fans due to the overwhelming number of sponsors, specifically focusing on the side sponsor.
Especially for Beşiktaş the side sponsor heavily dominates the otherwise simple look.
Many fans have expressed a desire for sponsor-free versions of the shirts to be made available for purchase, as the current heavily sponsored designs are seen by some as ruining the aesthetic of the classic jerseys.
Rot-Weiss Essen 26-27 Home Kit Revealed - RWE Returns as Main Sponsor
German third division club Rot-Weiss Essen has unveiled its new Jako home kit for the 2026-27 season, coinciding with a major sponsorship announcement.
The energy company RWE AG is set to return as the club's main sponsor starting July 1, 2026, signing a three-year deal that brings the iconic RWE logo back to the front of the first team's shirts. RWE AG was previously the main sponsor of the club's youth setup, a role that will now be taken over by thyssenkrupp AG.
The new Rot-Weiss Essen 26-27 home shirt by Jako features a predominantly red design, incorporating a very subtle bespoke street pattern across the front. It is so hardly visible that fans first thought it would be a generic kit.
To accommodate the new main sponsor, the previous primary partner, ifm-Unternehmensgruppe, has voluntarily moved to the left sleeve as a co-main sponsor, maintaining its financial commitment to the club for the next three years.
While the new sponsorship deals have been praised by many fans, some supporters have voiced their desire for the club to eventually change its kit supplier from Jako.
