The adizero f50 "smart" adidas football boot is the signature line of customizable, lightweight boots are launched. The first F50 released in 2004, in the build-up to UEFA Euro 2004, the range was released as a successor of the X-Line range and as a direct competitor to Nike's Mercurial Vapor range, which had been released two years earlier.

The Adidas company describes its new adizero f50 football boot, (or soccer boot depending on your location), as a "football boot with a brain."

Capable of monitoring user’s 360-degree personal performance data the adidas adiZero F50 miCoach incorporates a removable sensor that following use can wirelessly transfer information to your computer, smartphone or tablet via inbuilt Bluetooth technology.

The first consumer available boot to allow users to monitor their progress, F50 miCoach data can be compared and contrasted to professional players who wear the product with the likes of Lionel Messi, and Gareth Bale set to record and make public their own performances.

“With the miCoach technology; players will be able to prove just how fast they really are. I can’t wait to wear the boots in November and share my stats with the adidas community,” said Manchester United and England star Ashley Young.
