Barcelona Superstars Dembélé And Suarez Show Off Two All-New Next-Gen Boots
FC Barcelona strikers Ousmane Dembélé and Luis Suárez laced up in two blackout next generation football boots in training today. Let's take a closer look at Ousmane Dembélé's (next-gen Nike Mercurial Vapor 12) and Luis Suárez's (next-gen Adidas X 18) football boots.
Luis Suarez Shows Off Next-Gen Adidas X 18 Boots
Here is a close-up of the boots worn by Luis Suarez today.
The next-generation Adidas X 18+ Purespeed football boots worn by Luis Suárez are somehow a mixture of the laceless Adidas Nemeziz and the Adidas X Purespeed. They feature a laceless upper that is much thinner and flexible than the upper of the current generation.
Gabriel Jesus laced up in the same boots as Suárez in September 2017
The all-new next-gen Adidas X 18 boots will hit pitches for the first time in the 2018 Champions League final. They will be also used in the 2018 World Cup, quite logically.
Ousmane Dembele Trains in Blackout Next-Gen Nike Mercurial Vapor 12 Boots

The next-generation Nike Mercurial 2018 football shoe brings the boot in a new era with a knitted Flyknit upper and various other innovations.

Puma Kits Keep Ripping at the 2026 World Cup
Puma is facing significant criticism at the 2026 World Cup as multiple national team jerseys have easily ripped during matches.
Incidents involving players from Czechia, Morocco, Egypt, and Paraguay have highlighted an ongoing durability issue with the brand's latest kits - every torn shirt in the tournament so far belongs to a Puma-sponsored team.
The Puma 2026 World Cup kits incorporate the latest version of PUMA's ULTRAWEAVE “Thermoadapt” technology, which obviously is not tear-resistant enough.
The recurring wardrobe malfunctions have resulted in terrible PR for the German sportswear manufacturer and even prompted the viral resurgence of Xherdan Shaqiri's infamous quote from Euro 2016, where he joked that he hopes Puma does not produce condoms.
