Adidas earlier today officially unveiled the new X Ghosted 'PF' (Peregrine Falcon). The limited-edition ADidas X Ghosted Peregrine Falcon boots are set to be available from Saturday, December 19. A small selection of players will wear them on-pitch - Tottenham's Lucas Moura, Inter's Achraf Hakimi and Marseille's Michael Cuisance.
It's been a while since we first revealed that Adidas would launch a X Ghosted+ inspired by the peregrine falcon, the world's fastest animal. Officially unveiled today, the boots reveal a pretty outstanding look - some have even compared them to the iconic Yamamoto double of F50 colorways from 2014.

The material of the Adidas X Ghosted features a semi see-through aesthetic and is overlaid with Three Stripe branding in a nod to the wings of the peregrine falcon, the world’s fastest creature.
The peregrine is renowned for its speed, reaching over 320 km/h (200 mph) during its characteristic hunting stoop, making it the fastest bird in the world, as well as the fastest member of the animal kingdom. According to a National Geographic TV program, the highest measured speed of a peregrine falcon is 389 km/h (242 mph).

Here are the new adidas X Ghosted Peregrine Falcon boots.
The new adidas X Ghosted Peregrine Falcon boots introduce a bold and eye-catching look with a peregrine falcon graphic covering the entire upper. The sole plate has a metallic finish and fades from silver at the rear towards red at the front.
The 3 Stripes are applied very subtly and almost not visible, and it's similar with the Adidas logo on the tongue. The insole features the same graphic as the upper.
The new adidas X Ghosted Peregrine Falcon football boots are exactly the same as all colorways released thus far tech-wise.
