The people asked, and the people have received. After seasons of demand adidas have finally equipped the popular Copa Gloro silo with a soft-ground soleplate. Yep, it's winter-proof and it's your new kitbag essential.

The Copa Gloro has forever been the go-to pre-season option for real players on real pitches. A traditional leather upper, classic fold-over-elasticated tongue and a variety of old-school colourways have made it an ever-present on the grass roots scene, and now it no longer retires for the year when the rain comes. It was only a matter of time, and the 2018/19 season has provided a soft ground edition in a low-key combination of black and mint.

Try finding a more comfort, more durable football boot for £100. It won't happen. The Copa Gloro ticks every box in terms of what you'd want from a traditional leather football boot. Yes, adidas technology and innovation has progressed rapidly to result in laceless, knitted and synthetic designs but the Three Stripes haven't neglected their classic market – leather boots aren't heavy anymore, they're lightweight and match-fit. There's no compromise here.
