Jan 29, 2017, by Chris
Thanks to @mania_expert, we have came across a quite interesting Adidas Ace PureControl soccer cleat. This boot was never released officially, but many people nevertheless got their hands on them. Find out all you need to know about the Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl K-Leather Stellar Pack prototype soccer cleats.
Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl Stellar Pack K-Leather Prototype Boots
Featuring the design of the leather edition of the traditional low-cut Adidas Ace Stellar Pack boots, the Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl football boots were never released officially by the Three Stripes. However, while @mania_expert said those would be a sample edition, a follower on Instagram wrote that those boots as well as Adidas X 16´+ PureChaos Stellar Pack Leather boots were available on Adidas' US website for around one week.
They were put on sale accidentally very likely as Adidas some weeks later officially released two ultra-stunning golden, exclusive leather editions for both the Adidas Ace PureControl and the Adidas X PureChaos, part of a so-called Space Craft pack.
Do you think that it was the right decision not to launch those boots but the golden pack? Drop us a line below and see all football boots in Boot Calendar.
AFC Bournemouth 26-27 Home Kit - Fans Unhappy With Sponsor Logo
AFC Bournemouth has officially launched its new 26-27 home kit, marking the beginning of the club's new era with Danish brand Hummel. The shirt was unveiled featuring the club's traditional colors and introduces Vitality as the main front-of-shirt sponsor.
The Hummel AFC Bournemouth 26-27 home jersey features a classic design with cherry red and black stripes. While supporters have generally praised the overall template and the aesthetic of the new Hummel partnership, the execution of the main sponsor has drawn significant criticism.
Fans have quickly voiced their disappointment on social media regarding the circular Vitality logo placed in the center of the chest. Many supporters feel that the large white circular background heavily interrupts the design and detracts from an otherwise strong shirt, with fans expressing a preference for a simpler, text-only sponsor application.
Barnsley 26-27 Home Kit Released
Barnsley FC have officially launched their 26-27 home kit, signaling the latest release in their partnership with UK brand Oxen Sports. The club unveiled the kit under the slogan "Red by tradition. Built for the future.", showcasing a design that balances classic club identity with modern athletic details.
The Barnsley 26-27 home kit features the club's traditional red base complemented by crisp white accents, which are primarily visible on the V-neck collar and sleeve cuffs. The back of the shirt includes subtle but distinct detailing, featuring the word 'Tykes' along with a graphic of the club's mascot, Toby, positioned near the neckline.
Dundee United 26-27 Away Kit Released
Dundee United and technical sponsor Erreà have unveiled the club's new away kit for the 26-27 Scottish Premiership season. Moving away from their iconic tangerine palette, the Dundee United 26-27 away shirt features a sophisticated silver-grey and white colorway inspired by the silvery River Tay and the diamond within the club crest.
The kit incorporates a subtle, tone-on-tone geometric pattern across the shirt, directly developed from the crest's diamond shape. Silver grey serves as the foundation, complemented by crisp white accents on the collar, side panels, and sleeve cuffs. A monochrome Dundee United crest and the QuinnCasino sponsor logo complete the refined, clean aesthetic.
Glasgow City 26-27 Home Kit Released
Scottish women's football club Glasgow City has officially unveiled its new Adidas home kit for the 26-27 season. Accompanying the launch is the club's slogan, "Same Glasgow City, but louder," which sets the tone for the release. Available in both adult and kids versions, the shirt is being sold through the retailer Foudys.
The Adidas Glasgow City 26-27 home shirt features the club's traditional bold orange base, elevated by a distinctive graphic pattern. Inspired by "Cathie's story," the design mimics the soundwaves created by repeatedly striking a football against a wall. Every individual spot within the pattern represents a single impact, visually capturing the dedication and relentless practice involved in the sport.
The kit was first teased earlier in the week before its full release, inviting fans to embrace the club's loud new identity. The Glasgow City 26-27 home kit combines a striking aesthetic with a meaningful tribute to grassroots dedication and the trailblazing history of the team.
Club America 26-27 Shorts Feature Adidas Stripe Inconsistencies
Club America fans have noticed a confusing detail regarding the Adidas stripes on the club's new 26-27 shorts. The authentic version of the shorts features an inconsistent mix of both wide and thin Adidas stripes down the sides. In contrast, the replica stadium version comes with all-wide stripes, which correctly matches the all-wide stripe design seen on the corresponding shirt.
The inconsistencies become even more complicated upon further inspection. An additional image reveals yet another shorts variant featuring an all-thin stripe treatment. This wide array of different stripe configurations across the authentic, stadium, and other variants strongly suggests that Adidas has produced mixed production samples or made a manufacturing error, leaving supporters wondering which version is the official intended design.
