Gareth Bale Tests The adidas F50 Crazylight
Real Madrid winger laces up the latest adizero innovation.
As we close in on what's expected to be an unprecedented period for new football boots, Gareth Bale has given us our first look at what's tipped to be the next major innovation from the three stripes. The eccentric looking boots have been the subject of high speculation. So what's the inside story?
Sources close to adidas have confirmed to us that Bale has been testing the new F50 Crazylight - a breakthrough product in speed and lightweight technology. Immediate ties to the 99g F50 adizero - a boot previewed at the adidas Innovation Center last year - have been made, but we'll be surprised if adidas have already given the green light to a boot that was originally planned for 2015.
The three stripes are constantly pushing boundaries and this adizero Crazylight looks to be the next exciting project to come out of the adidas Innovation Lab. We'll bring you more details of the Crazylight technology as and when we receive it but for time being the speculation will continue.
The design of Bale's adidas F50 Crazylight takes on a bolder vibe than the current editions. A bright yellow upper hosts black patterned chevrons which move along the side of the boot and towards the toe. At this stage nothing has been confirmed by adidas but as the name suggests, the adidas Crazylight will most obviously be lighter than the existing model.
We expect the boots to be given a limited run, meaning they're likely to come with a higher price tag. No dates have been given by adidas, but with the boots now in the public eye, it won't be long before we hear more from adidas about their latest innovation.
