Having owned the adipure 4 sl I expected a similar feel.. These are super locked in, compared to the adipures they offered a very relaxed feel. The leather is not as soft as I expected but keen to see how it pans out over time.

In reply to babgh. Still holding strong, no issues being reported! They get a thumbs up when it comes to durability.

In reply to soccercleats101. Any comments about the sole separation so far? I'm looking to buy one of these this weekend.

In reply to JH. Haven't heard of it being a common issue to date, so I'd say no.

Its actually quite funny you should say that because Nikes boots have never fitted me at all, and I have quite a strong dislike for the materials they use in most of their modern boots. So no – I don't work for Nike.

Mizuno Morelias II is my favourite boot at the moment, but apart from that out of the major companies it tends to be Adidas I look to first for boots.

I just think they have got it very wrong with the compression tongue, and find it a bit weird that none of the reviews out there give any real details or analysis on how it performs. You really need to play in it for quite a few hours before you become aware of how the compression aspect is affecting you (although the lack of protection is obvious from day one).

I'm really not trying to start a tedious internet flame war, or be excessively negative about this boot without good reason – so please accept my apologies if I appeared to be doing so.

regards,
Jordan.

In reply to Jordan. Are you sure you don't work for Nike?

In reply to Gilly. That sounds like an advert. Are you sure you don't work for Adidas?

What's the difference between the comfort sole plate on the old Gloria and the sprint frame on the 17.1? I stopped wearing f50's a while ago because I could feel the studs poking through the sole, which caused blisters and hotspots. The comfort sole plate never had this issue. But you mentioned the sprint frame on the 17.1 is different from the typical f50 sprint frame?

Simply the best I've ever owned. And, at 43 yo. I've owned quite a few. Not only have I had Copas, I have a pair of Gloros. I've also owned Morelia II MIJ, Puma King Finale SL I, Pantofolos, Tiempos, and Phinnish II. These are the perfect shoe as far as I'm concerned. Do not let the price deter you. The 17.1 seems to be the culmination of every aspect I have loved with all other boots I have owned. I have taken them through 5 pickup games and 3 league games, and like them a little more every time I wear them. If you want a lightweight, comfortable boot with a great first touch, strikes shots pure and solid, and lets you play any pass you want (including the delicate chip over the defender) these are the shoe.
