F50 Elite Messi Firm Ground Cleats

The **Unisex F50 Elite Messi Firm Ground Cleats** are signature soccer cleats designed in collaboration with Lionel Messi, combining high-speed performance with comfort and precision. They feature a **HybridTouch synthetic suede and foil upper** for excellent ball control and a soft, haptic touch, optimized for stability and comfort during fast play. The cleats use a **Sprintframe 360 soleplate** that maximizes traction, speed, and stability with a unique configuration of rounded and bladed studs, and a heel counter that enhances foot steadiness during quick acceleration and cuts[1][3][5].
