Adidas is releasing an updated version of the Adizero f50 Messi boot to mark the return of the UEFA Champions Laegue, the world's greatest club competition and the one where the world's elite players mark their legend. The new boot design pays homage to Messi's superlative talents and success.
The boot is inspired by the gorgeous architecture of Barcelona and pays tribute to the many glorious performances put in by Messi in the Champions League. The boot's design represents every goal he has scored and the 21 cities he has scored the goals in. It also represents his four Golden Boot awards, four Champions League hat-tricks and three trophy-winning campaigns.
While Cristiano Ronaldo may have undertaken Messi as the best player in the world with his Champions League performances over the past couple of seasons, Messi will hope that the Adizero f50 Messi boot will help restore the power balance in his favor.
