In adidas long history in the football world there is probably no other player who has been as important as Leo Messi. The Rosario star had spent some tough times during 2014 and 2014. But the critics just made him come back stronger in 2015, stronger than ever. Todays Leo Messi is the best version of himself, shutting all the critics with his performance.
Leo Messi 2015
Almost since the begining of his carreer, Leo had used the same boots as the rest of player in adidas history. The model he used to wear was the adizero F50, nothing special, just the regular model for one of the best players. These last years we did see Leo Messi with different colorways for his adizero F50 de Messi, adidas actually changed the name to Messi 10. But 2015 is the year of his re-birth, and adidas wants to make his stand out even more, and after working with his they have achieved the perfect boot for Leom the Messi 15:

I know you like to find similarities. I can always read in the comments: "this boot looks like..." And this time I will be the one to say that this Messi 15 looks like... NOTHING. Leo has had a team of designers and has been testing different materials and structures for his new boot and they have achieved the perfect one. with all the specifications he wants, that will allow him forget he is wearing football boots and that can feel like an extension of his body.

The new adidas Messi 15 can be split in three different pieces that joined together creat this unique boot. But I want to talk about everything so you can understand why this model is not just a fancy aesthetic boot. Starting with the material in the upper. The new synthetic MessiTouch material is an evolution of the synthetics Hybridtouch material we had in the Preds and the F50. A new improved intern layer gives a better fit and sensation when the boot touches the ball.

The second technology we will find is the MessiFrame. Again it's an evolution of the technology we had with the adizero F50 with the SprintFrame. But this time the cage we find is made with a different material with will fit and fulfill the requirments of Leo Messi. The key of this piece is to provide the best possible support and stability in all those high agility actions. That's the reason why this time that plate has extended covering the lace system, the lateral and back heel areas.

And i'm going to finish with the sole plate. This is a very important element of the boot for Messi. He never uses SG studs but still needs to have extreme good traction in all thoes explosive movements and at the same time he can't gest stuck in the pitch slowing him down. So the new MessiTraxion outsole is a plate that is an evolution of the past Messi models and with a very nice detail, The two studs in the front portion and the two studs in the back portion are shorter, something that Leo has always wanted and made with past models but we never got to see it.

Did you notice the central stud? You can find the Leo Messi signature. Why did adidas do this? They did it so the Argentinian player can leave his signature in all the stadiums he visits with FC Barcelona and the national team.
