New adidas prototypes?
« on: May 10, 2011, 04:36:06 PM »
Noticed Matt Prior wearing what looked like a new pair of adidas today against Notts, thought it may interest some of you!

All/most of the England team were warming up in these yesterday and KP was wearing them along with MP through the test. Could just be trainers.....

The ones in the ashes looked like spiked up trainers. The highlights the other day while it was raining showed them when he fell over the stumps from the stump camera. Front half of shoe was spikes, back half dimple/rubber.

Prior was the first to wear them now a few are, looks like they are lower profile, and have a lateral support strap, aiding lateral movement, can see why Prior was first to use them being a keeper, more like tennis shoes with spikes on
The stripes do indeed resemble the 'claws' of adidas' Barricade 6.0 tennis shoe. At least that's what I first thought when I saw these.
