New Adidas Glitch 2.0 Skins Pay Homage To 2006 Boots
The new Adidas Glitch 2.0 skins pay tribute to the 2006 Predator Absolute and the famous F50+ "Spider".
Adidas Glitch Absolute Skin
The Adidas Glitch AbsoluteSkin brings back the look of the Adidas Predator Absolute 2006 World Cup soccer cleats. The particular colorway is the white and gold model worn by Michael Ballack in Germany's home World Cup.
Unveiled just before the 2006 World Cup in Germany, the Predator Absolute featured a ultra-modern design for the time but also new technologies such as the appearance of the PowerPulse, an Adidas technology aimed to shift the centre of gravity of the shoe.
The remakes of the boots just comes with the design of the OG cleats - in example, a large golden part shows the presence of the famous Predator tongue in 2006.
Adidas Glitch F50 Skin
The other skin in this "Classic pack" is inspired by a shoe model from 2005 - he F50+, and, in particular, the Adidas F50 'Spider' edition.
The new Adidas Glitch 2019 Classic Skins are set to be available exclusively in the Adidas Glitch App.

FC Barcelona to Launch 26-27 Home Kit in Early July
FC Barcelona and Nike have officially agreed to schedule the launch of their 2026-2027 home kit for early July. According to reports from Mundo Deportivo, the club made this strategic decision because the current 25-26 jerseys are still generating massive sales figures following a highly successful campaign.
Following the home release, the highly anticipated away kit is scheduled to launch in late July, just in time to debut during the squad's pre-season tour. This secondary strip will introduce a striking black and purple colorway and is confirmed to be released under Nike's special Kobe Bryant sub-label. The club's 26-27 wardrobe will then be completed in the second half of August with the official launch of a fresh turquoise green third kit.
While fans wait for the new collection, current shirt sales continue to soar at the official stadium store, with Lamine Yamal comfortably topping the charts ahead of departed club legend Robert Lewandowski.
Which of the three upcoming Barcelona 26-27 designs are you most excited to purchase? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

Toronto police have carried out the largest seizure of counterfeit soccer jerseys in Canadian history, recovering more than 16,000 fake items with FIFA, Nike, Adidas and Puma branding, as well as flags and two counterfeit FIFA World Cup trophies. The haul has an estimated street value of CA$3.5 million and includes replicas of Team Canada, Argentina, Portugal and Croatia kits. Two suspects, 41-year-old Ramy Jaber and 62-year-old Walid Sarhan, were arrested after police acted on a tip about a Mississauga warehouse and executed a search warrant.
The pair allegedly supplied the fraudulent merchandise to retail stores through a legitimate trading company, with customers charged full price under the impression they were buying authentic products. Some NFL jerseys were also recovered in the operation.
