Bought these shoes when I needed to replace an older pair of Adidas. I have to say that these are probably the best turf shoes that I have played in. They have a good fit to them and the material and build quality are top notch.

They have an asymmetrical lace configuration (to those that believe in that design of choice) to allow better contact with the ball. The pleather in use actually feels good as opposed to some really hard plastic that cheaper shoes come with. Because of that, the shoe does tend to run a little on the heavy side, but it just guarantees a little more longevity for your shoe. I've had other, cheaper pairs that break down in mere weeks of use. This pair has lasted a good four months without any noticeable wear and tear, aside from the scuff marks and dirt that accumulates with proper use.

The only down side is that, at least in my preference, the shoes come with really short laces. These laces are just enough to tie them once, but I prefer to double-knot my laces to securely ensure them. I hate to have to constantly re-tie laces over and over in a match. The laces here are a bit on the short side, so I replaced them with longer ones just so that I can do the double-knot on them. IF you have that same method, then I suggest you invest in some longer laces because these are rather short.

I have the white/blue/black adinova, and I like this color scheme better than the other option, but both have classic style. If you're into crazier styles then this might be too tame, but if you are into the classic look of cleats or turf shoes, then this pair is right up your alley. Call me old fashioned, but nothing beats black or white cleats.

Overall, I'd say these are really a great pair of soccer shoes. Aside from the short laces, I can't say anything negative about these shoes. They have a good fit, and they feel great on the pitch. They control well on the surface with adequate grip and any time I blast the ball they protect my foot from ever hurting.

Another great shoe from Adidas.

I've played weekly in these shoes for well over a year and they're holding up well. The nubs allow the perfect grip on my indoor field that tends to slip with nubless turf shoes.

I've been wearing Adidas soccer shoes for many, many years. Normally I would fit into a size 9 1/2 perfectly, that's not the case with these shoes. While the width is still right on, they are about 1/4 of an inch longer than the normal Adidas 9 1/2. While that wouldn't be a huge deal if they were just normal tennis shoes or something like that, we are talking about soccer shoes. 1/4 of an inch makes a HUGE difference. I definitely recommend getting a different shoe, unless you have actually tried these on to make sure they fit correctly for you.
