This image shows crazy Adidas Nemeziz Messi 18 soccer cleats in red, blue, silver and yellow.
An insane matchup of four distinct colors that go together more or less well, the new Adidas Nemeziz Messi boots are red with fading blue bits on the outside front and rear. All brandings, including the lateral 3 Stripes and a large 'Messi' writing on the inside rear, are silver metallic.
Rounding off the ridiculous look of the December 2018 Adidas Nemeziz Messi football boots is a fading yellow color block on the inside rear. The sole plate is solid blue.
