After Adidas discontinued the Adidas Adipure silo in Summer 2014, however, Frank Lampard did not make the switch to one of Adidas' two new boot silos but stayed true to the Adidas Adipure boots. He should wear them until his last match for Man City in May 2015. Making his debut for New York City FC, Man City's sister club, in August 2015, Lampard surprisingly did not lace up in his beloved Adidas 11pro boots but in the leather edition of the Adidas X 15, which he wore until the last match as professional in November 2016.
