Yes, in fact adidas’ black football shoes made World Cup history back in 1954 when founder Adi Dassler designed now classic black shoes – the legendary adidas Argentina - for the West German team, propelling them to victory against Hungary in the so-called ‘Miracle of Berne’.
It’s a matter of preference, but black is a classic look that suggests you take football seriously.
While black may absorb more of the sun’s heat than lighter colours, adidas’ shoes have plenty of design features to keep your feet cool.
