Adidas Joins the #Bootsonlysummer Trend by Creating a Special F50 Adiframe Boots
May 9, 2025, by Phan Tich Giay
- #Bootsonlysummer Trend: People are wearing football boots with everyday clothes for fashion, especially on social media.
- Safety Concern: Wearing standard football boots with studs on hard surfaces is dangerous due to lack of grip and risk of falls.
- Adidas's Solution: Adidas is releasing the special F50 Adiframe boots, designed to look like classic F50 football boots but with a flat, street-safe outsole instead of studs.
The #bootsonlysummer trend has been taking over TikTok and Instagram feeds, with fashion-forward individuals and even celebrities styling football boots (FG or SG tuds included) with everyday streetwear and even high-fashion outfits. Now, Adidas is stepping into the conversation with a dedicated product: the special F50 Adiframe boots, designed to nail the look while being street-ready.
However, rocking firm ground (FG) or soft ground (SG) football boots on concrete or other hard urban surfaces isn't just a fashion statement; it can be quite hazardous. The studs offer little to no grip on such terrain, leading to a high risk of slips and falls, not to mention rapid wear and tear on the studs themselves.
Adidas F50 Adiframe Boots - Shock Pink/Bold Green/Silver Metallic
Addressing both the trend and the safety concerns, Adidas has cleverly introduced the F50 Adiframe. This special edition shoe directly taps into the #bootsonlysummer aesthetic but is engineered for everyday wear.
The design of the special F50 Adiframe shoe is a direct homage to the iconic Adidas F50.6 Tunit from 2006, a boot celebrated for its futuristic look and customizable Tunit system.
The crucial difference lies in the sole. Instead of football studs, the F50 Adiframe features a purpose-built outsole. This outsole appears to be made from a durable rubber or hard plastic compound, completely encasing what would traditionally be the stud plate. This provides a flat, stable surface suitable for walking on streets, concrete, and other urban environments, eliminating the slip hazard of FG/SG studs.
There is no exact information on the Adidas F50 Adiframe release shoe yet, but it is likely to be released soon.
What do you think of Adidas creating a street-safe version of a classic F50 for the #bootsonlysummer trend? Will you be copping the F50 Adiframe? Let us know in the comments below.

New DFB-Pokal Youth Broadcast Graphics
The German Football Association (DFB) has introduced an updated broadcast graphics package for the DFB-Pokal Nachwuchs youth competition for the 26-27 season. However, the new visual overlay—used during live broadcasts and official streams, has immediately drawn criticism from design-conscious fans following the tournament's first-round matches. Big thanks to @truksterrr.
Critics and graphic designers pointed out several noticeable design flaws in the new scoreboard and matchup banners. The graphic features a dark green bar with a central DFB-Pokal trophy icon separating team names, scores, and crests. Specific complaints highlight poor font selection, bad kerning, uneven spacing between elements, and misaligned club logos that give the overlay an unpolished and low-budget appearance.
As live streaming of youth football continues to expand, fans expect clean, professional presentation even at junior levels. It remains to be seen whether the DFB will refine the graphics package or fix the alignment issues for subsequent rounds of the 26-27 campaign.
Boca Juniors 26-27 Home Kit Concept Edits by Franco Carabajal
Following the official reveal of the Boca Juniors 26-27 home kit by Adidas, graphic designer Franco Carabajal (@FrancooC07) has published concept edits visualizing alternative takes on the new jersey. Using official launch photos featuring Leandro Paredes, the edits explore how subtle design adjustments could alter the overall aesthetic of the Xeneize home shirt.
The concepts focus primarily on the framing of the iconic yellow chest band and the shirt's collar. One variation introduces clean white borders above and below the horizontal band alongside matching white V-neck trim. Another version retains the yellow collar while adding thin white piping to outline the central stripe, recalling classic Boca Juniors jerseys that incorporated white details.
While the official Adidas 26-27 home kit utilizes a dual-tone blue effect framing the chest stripe, these concept renders highlight how small details like contrasting stripe borders can offer a different perspective on Boca's iconic kit.

Look closer at the design and you will notice intricate custom details embedded directly within the stripes, incorporating elements of Jablonec's modern visual identity. Dark green detailing highlights the collar, sleeve cuffs, sponsor logo, and club crest to deliver a sharp look. Dark green shorts and white socks with green trims complete the full strip.
The 26-27 collection marks the first season of Jablonec's new partnership with Italian sportswear brand Macron, who replaced previous kit supplier Capelli.
