adidas has just unveiled their latest version from their X silhouette and it is being called the X18+. According to adidas:
The cleat is designed with new innovations to provide stability and support at high speed. A laceless upper locks-down the mid-foot, crucial when accelerating and during high speed moments. It also ensures minimal interference between the foot and ball. A new low-cut claw collar construction features a new stretch material that secures the foot in place and provides increased stability and support.
An updated speedframe outsole features lightweight, drillium engineered tooling and minimalistic construction to offer extreme traction during rapid acceleration. A 3D molded heel provides a snug and stable fit, designed to lock the foot in place during acceleration.
Innovative materials ensure complete control even at high-speed. The skeletal weave is compiled of an ultra-thin woven grid of optically charged speed yarns to allow for responsive touch and lightweight feel. The new, ultra-soft speedmesh offers a controlled touch without restricting the movement of the foot.
The Energy Mode X18+ is also available as a cage and street shoes. The cage version features the same coloring and claw collar construction and laceless upper as the on-field cleat; along with a full length BOOST™ midsole and traction studs.
