All-New Adidas Football Boot 2024 Naming System Launched
- New Naming Structure: Adidas is transitioning to a 4-tier naming system for its football boots: Elite, Pro, League, and Club, replacing the previous 5-tier structure.
- "Plus" Name Elimination: The "Plus" designation for top-tier versions of the Copa and X boots will be discontinued starting in July 2024, with the top Copa boot being called "Adidas Copa Elite Knitted".
- Tiered Variations: Each tier, such as Elite and League, will have sub-variations, such as lace and laceless, to indicate different specifications, with variations depending on the individual silo.
Update: British football store Lovell Soccer has greatly explained how Adidas has changed the naming system for its three main boot silos for 2024.
The plus name will be history from summer 2024, and it makes much sense
Both the Copa and the X still come with the Plus name for the "special" top versions - this is pretty confusing for customers and will be history from July 2024. From then on, the top Copa is going to be called "Adidas Copa Elite Knitted." For the all-new F50, there only exist two top versions again, instead of three (called Adidas F50 Elite Lacless and Adidas F50 Elite").
Confirming our leak, Adidas has officially introduced the new naming system for the 2024 football boots in the just launched Solar Energy collection. In partnership with Vietnamese boot expert PHÂN TÍCH GIÀY, we will provide a more intuitive look at each tier of the Adidas 2024 football boots.
Adidas Football Boot 2024 Naming System
The Adidas 2024 boot naming system will be divided into 4 tiers instead of 5 tiers as before: Elite - Pro - League - Club
Adidas Predator 2024
For the Adidas Predator 24, the Elite tier continues to be divided into three versions as follows:
- Elite Tongue
- Elite LL (laceless)
- Elite (laces)
Similar to the Elite tier, the League tier is also divided into three versions:
- League LL (high collar)
- League (high collar, laces)
- League low (low collar, laces)
Adidas X Crazyfast 2024
Just like the Predator 24 boot, the X Crazyfast boot also has an Elite tier, which is divided into three versions as follows:
- Elite +
- Elite LL (laceless)
- Elite (laces)
The Adidas X Crazyfast shoes also have a League tier, which is divided into two versions:
- League LL
- League (laces)
Adidas Copa Pure 2024
For the Copa Pure 2024 boot, the Elite tier is only available in two versions:
- Elite +
- Elite
Adidas Naming System vs Nike Naming System
In fact, Adidas has come up with a naming system that is almost identical to Nike's, with the exception of Tier 3 (League vs Academy). Is this a coincidence? Probably not.
Adidas New Naming System vs Old Naming System
Comparing Adidas' old and new naming systems, the corresponding tiers are as follows:
- Elite + ~ +
- Elite LL ~ .1 LL
- ELite ~ .1
- Pro ~ .2
- League ~ .3
- Club ~ .4
Adidas Football Boot 2024 Naming System (TF version)
For the turf versions, Adidas has removed the Pro tier. The naming system only leaves 3 tiers: Elite - League - Club.
Depending on the each silo, Adidas will continue to subdivide each of its tiers. This is to identify whether they are laceless or not, for example.

Argentina 2026 World Cup Squad Portrait Photos Released
The official squad portraits for the Argentina national team ahead of the 2026 World Cup have been released, giving us a first real look at the special gold sleeve badge. As previously reported, former World Cup-winning nations will wear an exclusive gold-themed patch on their right sleeve during the tournament, setting them apart from the rest of the competing teams.

England 2026 World Cup Match Boots Stolen in Kansas City
The England national team has suffered a major setback ahead of their 2026 World Cup campaign, as the match boots of several top players were stolen from a transport van. The incident, first reported by Craig Hope and Jack Gaughan for the Daily Mail, has left the squad's staff scrambling to secure replacements before their first training session in Kansas City on Saturday.
In addition to the players' custom footwear, the thieves also made off with nearly all of the team's training footballs, reportedly leaving just a single ball behind. The logistical nightmare means kit managers and equipment staff must now work rapidly with their respective brands to supply the squad with new boots in time for their opening matches of the tournament.
Awesome: Leeds United 26-27 Home Kit Concept Based on Leaked Bayern München Away Kit
A stylish Leeds United home kit concept has caught the attention of fans online. Created by Leeds supporter and graphic designer @ZK1919, the concept directly adapts the design of an Adidas FC Bayern away kit, transforming it into a Leeds home shirt.
The concept features the classic Adidas Trefoil logo and integrates Leeds United's front-of-shirt sponsor, Red Bull. To match the club's traditional colors, the designer swapped the original red accents for yellow and outlined the Red Bull logo in blue. The concept also sparked discussions among supporters regarding the exact shade of yellow, the choice of the club badge, and the potential constraints of Red Bull's corporate branding rules on future kits.
While purely a fan-made design and not an official leak for the 2026-27 season, it highlights the potential of an Adidas Trefoil Leeds kit. The actual Leeds United 26-27 home kit has been very unpopular ahead of its release.
