Gareth Bale Debuts Modified Adidas X 15.1 Boots
Gareth Bale has become the next player to wear a modified version of the Adidas X 2015-2016 Cleats after Bastian Schweinsteiger and Theo Walcott already debuted a camouflaged Adidas X 15.1 Boot in their first pre-season friendlies.
Bale laced up in the customized Adidas X 15.1 Football Boots in all Real Madrid pre-season training sessions, and debuted them in the friendly against AS Roma on Saturday. So let's take a closer look at the custom Adidas Gareth Bale Boots.

The custom Gareth Bale 2015-2016 Boots feature the same upper as the Adidas X 15.1 Boots including the trademark Dynamic Fit collar, while the sole plate is completely customized. The new Gareth Bale Boots feature the popular outsole of the first Adidas F50 Adizero Boots, which were originally released in 2010.
The Sprintframe sole plate of the Adidas F50 Adizero 2010 Boots features a remarkable design with an external heel counter and a triangular stud configuration, made for efficient transfer of energy.
However, it's naturally not only Adidas who customize their boots for their best players. Neymar wears a completely modified version of the Nike Hypervenom Phantom 2 without Flywire, a lower Dynamic Fit collar and a custom upper, and Cristiano Ronaldo is famous for wearing a lower Dynamic Fit collar.
