Including Leaked Ballon d'Or Boots - Here Are All Boots of The Discontinued Adidas Messi 16 Silo
May 24, 2017, by Chris
With Adidas set to launch the all-new Adidas Nemeziz football boot, the Messi-exclusive silo is almost history. We take a look at all Adidas Messi 16+ PureAgility football boots launched by the Three Stripes in the past 12 months, including an Adidas Messi Ballon d'Or edition that will never be released.
When Adidas launched the laceless Adidas Messi 16+ PureAgility soccer cleats one year ago, it was already known that he Argentinian superstar preferred the 16.1 version of the boot instead of the laceless version. However, as Adidas launched some limited editions only for the laceless Adidas Messi 16+ PureAgility football boots, we take a look at the laceless version.
Initial Launch - Adidas Messi 16+ PureAgility Mercury Pack
The second-generation of the Adidas Messi soccer cleat silo was launched ahead of the 2016 Copa America. Dubbed the Adidas Messi Mercury Pack edition, the first Adidas Messi 16 football boot colorway boasts a unique silver and blue shimmering upper.
Adidas Messi 16+ PureAgility Speed of Light Pack
Part of the first Adidas 2017-2018 boot collection, the Adidas Speed of Light pack, the Solar Blue Adidas Messi 16+ PureAgility soccer cleats were an instant hit.
Special Messi 10/10 2016 Edition - Adidas Messi 16+ PureAgility Kryptonite
Celebrating Messi's legacy with a ultra-limited boot that is released every October 10th, the outstanding Adidas Messi 16 10/10 Kryptonite soccer cleats were limited to just 100 pairs.
Adidas Messi 16+ PureAgility Space Dust
Just one day after the launch of the special limited edition Adidas Messi 10/10 boot, Adidas launched the the third regular colorway of the Adidas Messi 16+ boot. Black and green, the Adidas Messi 16+ Space Dust soccer boot are less outstanding than the ultra-limited Adidas Messi 10/10 boots.
Adidas Messi 16+ PureAgility Red Limit
Part of the Adidas 2016 Red Limit soccer boots collection, the last Adidas Messi 16+ boots of the year introduced a stunning design in red, white and black.
Adidas Messi 16+ PureAgility 2016 Ballon d'Or Boots
An Adidas Messi 16 boot that will never see the light of the day surfaced in early March. Meant to be released in early January if Messi had won his sixth FIFA Ballon d'Or (the Ballon d'Or ended up in Cristiano Ronaldo's hands instead), the special-edition Adidas Messi 16+ PureAgility Ballon d'Or cleats are extraordinary.
Adidas Messi 16+ PureAgility Blue Blast
The Blue Blast edition of the Adidas Messi 16+ PureAgility cleats boasts a bold blue and pink gradient design.
Adidas Messi 16+ PureAgility Turbocharge
The last-ever Adidas Messi signature boot silo was part of Adidas' Turbocharge collection. The Adidas Messi 16+ PureAgility Turbocharge 2017 boots feature a stunning Copper Metallic upper, a black collar and flashy green studs.

Xabi Alonso Wears Adidas Predator Precision Remake Boots in First Chelsea Training Session
Xabi Alonso has taken charge of his first training session as Chelsea manager ahead of the 26-27 season, and he did so wearing a classic pair of football boots. The Spanish manager was spotted at Cobham wearing an Adidas Predator Precision remake, bringing a touch of nostalgia to the pitch as the squad prepares for their upcoming pre-season friendlies later this month.
The Adidas Predator Precision originally launched in the year 2000 and is known for its iconic fold-over tongue and distinctive rubber grip elements. Alonso, who has a long-standing affinity for the Predator silo, opted for this modern remake of the classic boot for his managerial debut on the London club's training ground. His footwear choice also neatly aligns with the branding of Chelsea's 26-27 training collection, which was launched earlier this month with a "train with precision" theme.
Thanks to Curve Curve for spotting the boots from Chelsea's official Instagram pictures.
