Custom Adidas F50 2026 World Cup Referee Boots Spotted
Assistant referee Kyle Atkins has been spotted wearing a heavily customized pair of Adidas F50 boots during the 2026 World Cup. Originally part of the Adidas 2025 'Road to Glory' pack, the boots were modified to suit the traditional blackout aesthetic typically expected of match officials.
The standard Road to Glory Adidas F50 boots feature a predominantly white upper, but Atkins' custom pair has been blacked out for a stealthy look on the pitch. The boots also feature a personalized detail on the side reading 'tierno WC26', highlighting their specific creation for the 2026 tournament. Thanks to @abcdefutbol for the spot.
Special Ado-Inspired Japan 2026 World Cup Home Kit
Adidas has just announced that it will release a special edition 2026 Japan national team jersey featuring Ado’s logo, name, and portrait. The kit incorporates the iconic blue rose motif prominently across the front. A special visual of Ado wearing the shirt appears on the back.
Ado serves as creative partner for the adidas Japan national team 2026 uniforms and is creating the official uniform song. The project ties into the standard kit’s “HORIZON” theme, which draws from horizon-inspired graphics symbolizing shared ambition ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
