Spurs midfielder Dele Alli celebrates his 21th birthday today. We take a look at our five favorite soccer boots worn by the England international, who has been already signed by Adidas as a youth player.
Dele Alli started his career as professional wearing Adidas Predator football boots, while he made the switch to the Adidas Ace when the Three Stripes discontinued their iconic silo in May 2015.
Adidas Ace 15.1 Black / White / Mint Green
Launched in late 2015 as last colorway of the first-generation Adidas Ace 15.1 football boots, the black, white and mint green Adidas Ace 15.1 football boots are our favorite colorway of the Adidas Ace debut generation. The boots would have been even better if Adidas would have opted for black or white laces and studs instead of Mint Green (laces) and Shock Pink (studs).
Adidas Ace 17+ PureControl Red Limit
Inspired by the famous Adidas Predator soccer cleat, the launch colorway of the Adidas Ace 17+ Red Limit football boot was an instant hit amongst boot enthusiasts. However, whereas the retail edition of the boots featured an old upper, Dele Alli already received the boots with the updated upper.
Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl Stellar Pack
Combining a white, black and golden upper design, the Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl Stellar Pack soccer cleats greatly matched with Tottenham's golden 2016-17 kit.
Adidas Predator LZ - White / Black / Gold
Combining a white and black upper with golden applications, it is no miracle that these boots made our list. The Adidas Predator LZ features five lethal zones that each are meant to aid a different part of a player's game and a synthetic upper that merges the comfort and fit of a leather with the durability of a synthetic. The Adidas Predator LZ weights in at 225 grams.
Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl Solar Blue
The third colorway of Adidas' laceless soccer boot was the most popular paint job of the Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl when released in March 2016, and is still our favorite Adidas Ace PureControl soccer boot yet.
