Messi's 'último tango'

adidas has unveiled a special limited-edition release named “Ultimo Tango” for the 2026 World Cup — Messi’s sixth tournament and 20 years after his first. The boot draws inspiration from the legendary adidas F50 Tunit boots that a young Messi first wore in 2006.

Design Inspiration: A Nod to the Iconic F50 Tunit

The upper features the widely used HybridTouch+ material, a staple of the Argentine’s boots for many years, paired with a Halocage lining identical to the standard version of the new adidas F50.

Subtle Gold Detailing and Argentina Colours

The design incorporates subtle gold accents alongside the colours of the Argentina jersey, paying homage to the Albicelestes’ previous World Cup title. Messi’s logo appears on the heel, and the laces are covered, a design element carried over from the legendary F50s.

Sole, Slogan, and Unique Upper Elements

The “Ultimo Tango” slogan is printed directly onto the sole, which is carried over from the current F50 model. Additional messages appear on the string bed, and the upper features a slightly different design compared to the standard version.
