Classy Black Adidas Copa 2017 Boots Released
Jan 2, 2017, by Pat
Following up on the red and white launch colorway, Adidas today released an even classier, predominantly black Copa 17 boot. Closely following the look of the original Copa Mundial, the black Adidas Copa 17 soccer boots form part of the Adidas Chequered Black collection.
Adidas Copa 17.1 - Core Black / White / Red
This image shows the stunning black, white and red Adidas Copa 2017 football boots from the Adidas Chequered Black pack.
Closely inspired by the original Adidas Copa Mundial, the black Adidas Copa 17.1 cleats are black with white a white outsole, white Adidas stripes on both sides and more white detailing on the heel. Red accents, present in the form of brandings and a graphic print on the sole plate, round off this instant-classic look of the second Adidas Copa 17 boots, part of the Chequered Black collection.
Tech-wise, the black and white Adidas Chequered Black Copa 2017 soccer boots have a kangaroo-leather upper for the most part, with only the very rear being an exception and made of synthetic leather. Other key features of the new Adidas Copa 17 cleats include a fold-over compression tongue and an Ortholite sockliner.
Last but not least, the sole plate of the Adidas Copa 2017 football boots is almost identical to that of the Adidas Ace, with the biggest difference probably being the visual design. It has eleven conical studs aligned in a classic set-up, as well as an arch in the midfoot area for increased stability.
Part of the Adidas Chequered Black football boot collection, the black Adidas Copa 17.1 boots were launched in early January 2017. They retail at $200 (€200, £150). We've been told that, similar to what Nike had been doing with the Tiempo, this specific colorway will remain in Adidas' lineup for longer than a regular colorway.

FC Cartagena 26-27 Away Kit Released
Spanish side FC Cartagena and Macron have officially launched their new away kit for the 26-27 season, paying homage to the city's rich three-thousand-year heritage. Draped in traditional carmesí red, the jersey is decorated with an intricate all-over graphic pattern inspired by an ancient Roman mosaic uncovered in the crypt beneath the Catedral de Santa María la Vieja. Elegant gold detailing highlights the monochrome crest, collar trim, sleeve cuffs, and sponsor emblems, completed by the Latin motto Carthago Nova Invicta Est subtly sublimated onto the lower hem.
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.
