adiPure SL Available for Preorder on Soccerpro.com

Soccerpro.com seem to have a habit of putting unreleased boots up for pre-order. They did it a couple of months ago with the adiPower Predator and have done it again with the adiPure SL. If what Soccerpro says is true, surprisingly the SLs should be released in May. This doesn’t make much sense as it would be near the end of the season in Europe, meaning it would tougher to advertise the boots on field.

The one thing that strikes me about these photos is the amount of extras that Adidas are offering! Normally Nike is the company that dominates in the extras department but it seems Adidas have really gone all out for the SLs. The bag and the cloth are apparent, but I’m not really sure what the other two items are. These extras seem to point towards the slight possibility of the SLs being limited edition.
SPECS:
“If you think the adidas adiPure IV is a good boot, then wait until you see the new adidas adiPure IV SL. It’s the newer, faster, version of the adiPure!
What does SL stand for? Maybe “Soft Leather”? Is it “Stunning Looks”? How about “Super Light”? Yep, that’s the one! SL stands for Super Light, so now you can be faster than ever in your new adidas adiPure IV SL!
UPPER: The upper is made with 100% ultra soft, lightweight, K-Leather. Do you know what this means? Better fit, more comfortable, and a great, natural ball feel. The one touch construction in the vamp offers less water uptake, a softer feel, and a more breathable upper. Not to mention, the premium soft lining features anti-slip finishing. That means you will have the best comfort and fit available in a pair of adidas soccer cleats!
MIDSOLE: The adidas adiPure SL comes with a cushioned sockliner, that is ergonomically pre-molded to offer more comfort. Plus, the X-Static treatment within the shoe helps regulate temperature to keep your foot cool and comfortable.
OUTSOLE: The outsole uses Sprint Frame construction. This is more lightweight that your typical outsole, but it is still stable through its geometric shape. The outsole uses less layers and no insole board, so the outsole provides all of the shoe’s stability. The triangular studs, with a TRAXION™ sidewall, maximizes acceleration, breaking, and turning, while enhancing performance by evenly distributing forces.
It’s stable, it’s comfortable, it’s light, it’s fast, it’s the new Super Light adidas adiPure IV SL!”

The pre-order price is $249.99 USD, so a little cheaper than we expected but still pretty expensive none the less.
Personally, the imminent arrival of the adiPure SL is one of, if not the most exciting release of the year and I can’t wait. You can be sure we’ll have a review up of the boots, but in the meantime, what do you think? Leave your comments in the section below.
