Boot review: Adidas Speedflow+

In keeping with this issue’s review subject, we ask Swaz for a quick word

Issue 10

Look

These are quite symmetrical in pattern, aesthetically pleasing. There’s a bit of gold on the bottom there too, why not? As a Spurs fan I could be worried about the colour but I’m going to call it more coral then red.

Feel

They’re a narrow boot. These are the generation up from the adidas X Ghosted I reviewed last season and they’re more comfortable: there’s a lot more knitted texture on them rather than sheer plastic. They’ve had feedback, haven’t they?

Control

There feels like there’s more padding on the ol’ upper than there was on the X Ghosted, which makes controlling the ball easier. It’s a speed boot but it’s not just about pace.  

Tech

The heel is Primeknit. Springy. The Carbitex on the bottom is nice as well. It’s a refined boot in every way, shape and form.

Swaz factor

I think they’re the best speed boot that adidas have made; if you’re a winger, they’re the only boot to get. I’m not a winger though. I’ve only ever been likened to Pirlo and Messi. Mirlo, if you like. A fine wine.
