L10NEL M35SI: First Adidas X Speedportal Messi 2023 Signature Boots Released
Feb 22, 2023, by Chris
One week after PSG superstar Lionel Messi debuted his first Adidas 2023 signature boots in the Champions League clash against Bayern Munich, Adidas officially launched the cleats. They are officially called L10NEL M35SI, celebrating 35 years of Leo Messi's greatness.
The new Adidas "L10NEL M35SI" X Speedportal picks up design elements from Messi's previous signature shoes - the result is a very busy, almost inexplicable design. A bit like what Messi's opponents might think when they get ribbed.

The Adidas X Speedportal Messi boots boast a fresh colorway that is untypical for Messi's signature boots. They are mainly black, combined with striking orange and blue (officially Team Solar Orange / Silver Metallic / Core Black).
The design takes elements from Messi's signature football boots from the past years - there have been various, and so the design is also disordered.
Looking at tech, the Adidas X Speedportal Messi 2023 signature boots are identical to the standard paint jobs. Of course, Messi wears a camouflaged version with a very different upper.
