Adidas today launched the Euro 2016 edition of the Adidas Ace PureControl cleats which introduce a bold-yet-understated look for Adidas' first-tier model. Dominated by its unique, laceless construction, the Silver Metallic Adidas Ace PureControl 2016 football boots boast a straightforward design with bold Three Stripes on the outside in black. Part of the Mercury Pack, the silver Adidas Ace 16+ cleats will be available from May 24.
Adidas presented the all-new Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl boots to the public in a blackout variant in November 2015, and has since followed up with a number of colorway launches.

This image shows the stunning silver Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl Mercury Pack Euro 2016 and Copa America Centenario soccer cleats.
The Adidas Ace PureControl Euro 2016 boots are predominantly silver, while the collar, tongue area and pull tabs are colored in striking Solar Yellow. Additional splashes of color include the lateral stripes, in black, as well as the bottom of the studs and the front pull tab, both colored in Solar Yellow.
The sole plate of the Silver Metallic Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl Mercury Pack soccer boots boasts an interesting shimmery finish.
Whereas the outside of the silver Adidas Ace PureControl boots features Adidas' trademark stripes, the inside is colored in solid silver.
In order to offer a cleaner touch and pure ball control, the Silver Metallic Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl Copa America boots do away with any sort of traditional lacing and instead only boast an extension of the heightened collar in the place where the lace would be in a standard soccer boot.
Beyond that, the new Adidas Ace 16+ PureControl cleats are similar to the also Primeknit-featuring Adidas Ace 16.1 Primeknit boots. For more detailed info on the tech details of the Adidas Ace 16 PureControl Euro 2016 cleats, check out our in-depth analysis.
