Adidas Samba Collection Cleats

                    Adidas F50 Adizero TRX FG Samba Cleats

Get ready for your 90-minute lesson in speed.

This new, bold and bright version of the F50 is part of Adidas' Samba collection which pays perfect tribute to the 2014 World Cup host country Brazil. It is true that these blazing new colorways honor the true energy of Brazil. 

If you are a pacey winger, or top goal-scoring striker, then these are the cleats for you. 

The boots weigh in at a mere 5.8 oz, and they definitely feel much lighter than that when you're playing. It would be hard to find another cleat on the market as light as the Adidas F50 Adizero Samba. 

The real improvement that I noticed from this cleat compared to the Adizero II was the strength of the material on top of the cleat. It contains a newly textured SPEEDFOIL, which is designed to improve control and touch. Fitted with TRAXION FG studs for the utmost grip on firm ground pitches, this elite-level cleat dominates above all others from box to box. After testing these out, I knew I wouldn't have problems with slipping on any soccer pitch that I came across.

The breaking in part of these cleats was outstanding. I have never experienced anything like this! Coming from someone who struggles to break in cleats, wearing the new Samba cleats for the first time was astonishingly pain-free. I left the field with ZERO blisters- which is a first may I add. 

After wearing them for over three weeks, I experienced playing in all conditions. They held up great in everything that Chicago threw at me. I was slightly worried at how my performance would be using these in rain, but like Adidas stated, the TRAXION  FG stud really provides the best grip you could ever want from a cleat. I had no troubles and I even managed to score a goal. 

Check out soccer.com where they have a special discount price for this new Adidas cleat. The list price for the Adidas F50 Adizero TRX FG Samba cleat is $236.99, but this website store is coming in clutch with a price of $179.99.

I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a light weight, fast and reactive cleat. It will take you to the next level, I promise.

The main features of this cleat according to Adidas include;


  • HYBRIDTOUCH synethetic leather material for premium softness, light weight and performance
  • Semi-transparent SPEEDFOIL upper material for light weight, soft feel, high durability and great heel fit
  • DRIBBLETEX raised 3D grip texture for high speed dribbling under wet and dry conditions
  • The SPRINTFRAME construction uses geometrical research and a new stud configuration to offer the perfect balance between light weight and stability
  • miCoach compatible
  • TRAXION outsole for maximum grip in all directions; SPEEDTRAXION high-speed stud alignment for maximum acceleration and quick turns

Watch Cavani in Samba action.
