Adidas Soccer Cleats
Recommendations, Reviews and Tips


Adidas soccer cleats are claimed by many the best in soccer footwear industry. Are they really? Well, it is a subjective statement and it all depends on personal preferences and opinion.

However, I think we can all agree that Adidas cleats are among the most popular and...best soccer shoes.

Therefore if you choose to buy Adidas soccer cleats, you won't be disappointed. At least you shouldn't be...if you select the right model.

“Ya! Easy to say. But which of the Adidas cleats are adequate for me?”, you ask.

You are absolutely right. It's easy to say but also it is not this difficult to make the proper choice. Just follow my recommendation below and you will do just fine.

Before you start, I'd like to point out that recommended soccer cleats for competitive or advanced players are not forbidden for beginners or recreational players. I just don't think someone who starts playing soccer or play it recreationally needs high-end soccer cleats stuffed with newest technologies that make them very expensive. But if you have extra money...why not.

The other way around...? Advanced players getting boots for beginners...?
Well, although it won't cripple them I wouldn't suggest it.

If you are shopping for Adidas soccer cleats and looking for a good bargain, don't forget to check out these live Ebay listings:

    review

    Adidas has been the world’s leading soccer (football) brand since the days when founder Adi Dassler made his first pair of soccer boots well over 80 years ago.

    I can surly say that Adidas soccer cleats maintain their global leadership position in soccer, not because of a market share statistics but because of its historical influence in soccer cleats development.

    The most crucial innovations in football (soccer) boots industry came from Adidas:

    • 1950 – first soccer boots with molded multi-studded rubber sole (Samba).
    • 1954 – first ever removable screw-in studs.
    • 1956 – introduction of revolutionary nylon-based “polyamide” sole units.
    • 1974 – first use of Kangaroo Leather in soccer boots.
    • 1977 – first soccer boot outsole made from materials with different densities.
    • 1979 – release of the world's best selling soccer boot ever Adidas Copa Mundial.
    • 1994 – first external components in soccer cleats, revolutionary “Predators”.
    • 2006 – first soccer cleats with multi-interchangeable component, F50 Tunit.

    “For over 50 years, Adidas has played a major role in all significant football product innovations. This gives us a degree of credibility that no other brand can claim. Fans and footballers on every level know that we live for football, and that they can rely on our products.”
    Herbert Hainer - CEO and Chairman of Adidas
