After an on-pitch debut this weekend we're taking a closer look at the adidas X15+ SL. Since the adidas Football revolution was launched in May 2015 the X series has remained untouched up until this month when adidas introduced the first upgrade of chaos in the form of an SL.
The 2015/16 season has so far been all about the second-generation ACE and the laceless sensation that is the adidas ACE 16+ Purecontrol but the X is set to close the show by upping the pace as the season comes to a conclusion and the summer tournament football begins. Kicking off proceedings is a modified, more premium styled X15+ SL of which its quality has been confirmed by a strong player uptake on the opening weekend.
Streamlined and chiselled, the X15+ SL gives a new edge to the silo that is set for a second-generation installment ahead of EURO 2016 and the Copa America. Shaving excess weight off the X 15.1 and finished with a more premium style, the X15+ SL is the first boot to receive the 'Super Light' treatment since adidas introduced their football revolution in 2014. With an innovative new X-CAGE with a shine-through TPU material the adidas X15+ SL offers a speed-constructed design with striking graphics.
The X-SKIN is made up of a complex new three-layered system that delivers comfort, protection and performance in all weather conditions, whilst a lightweight design gives added support during agile movements. Improvements have also been made to the TECHFIT COLLAR sock construction that offers a compression fit around the ankle for increased support fit, while the X-CLAW base remains albeit with a slightly jazzier finish.
