adidas Tease The COPA 'Luxe Control' Edition

The adidas COPA ‘Luxe Control’ edition takes the legacy of the COPA series to new heights, combining the heritage of premium craftsmanship with cutting-edge innovation.

After 60+ years, everyone in football knows what the COPA series is all about. And as with any lasting legacy, it continues to show its adaptability, evolving to keep up with the demands of the modern game, which brings us nicely up to speed with the launch of the latest iteration of the COPA. Designed for those of us who enjoy the perfect balance of luxury, comfort, and performance, the ‘Luxe Control’ edition redefines what it means to play with control in style.

At the heart of this premium boot is a focus on luxury materials and performance-driven details, and it’s presented in a fittingly luxurious “Ftwr White/Matte Gold/Core Black” colourway. The golden Three Stripe branding incorporates serrated edges, adding a sophisticated sign off to the aesthetics. 

True to the COPA DNA, the vamp of the ‘Luxe Control’ edition is crafted from super soft leather, delivering the kind of premium touch you’d expect from COPA. This leather construction offers an ultra-smooth feel, ensuring unrivalled control over the ball while maintaining that luxurious aesthetic. The supple material moulds perfectly to your foot, providing a snug fit that enhances feel and precision when striking.

Then, for a fit that’s as personal as it is precise, the COPA Luxe Control features a zig-zag eyestay design that provides better adjustability when lacing the boots. This innovation ensures that the laces sit evenly and securely, no matter how tight or loose you prefer the fit. The extended lacing system, meanwhile, adds an extra layer of freedom, allowing players to adjust the lacing where needed for a bespoke fit, tailored to their unique foot shape.

The design philosophy behind the ‘Luxe Control’ edition is minimalism and efficiency. With reduced padding on the quarters, the boot achieves a slim, streamlined profile, ensuring a snug, sock-like fit without unnecessary bulk. The result is a boot that feels like an extension of your foot—light, agile, and responsive.

Inside the boot, a brand-new insole makes a significant difference. Engineered to eliminate excess space, the insole creates a seamless interaction between your foot and the upper, further enhancing control and comfort.
