As reported by GQ Magazine, the sneakers are crafted in pristine ‘Cloud White’ leather, featuring ‘Purple Energy Ink’ accents on the heel and the renowned three-stripe branding. The name ‘Samba’ will be elegantly imprinted in Gold across the shoe, while Lionel Messi’s logo, adorned in lime green, will grace the shoe’s tongue.
These sneakers symbolize Messi’s recent triumphs, with many attributing his attainment of the GOAT (Greatest of All Time) status. Following his World Cup victory, Messi secured his eighth Ballon d’Or in 2023, setting a record as the player with the most prestigious award in the history of the sport.
The Adidas Samba, an iconic design dating back to the 1940s, is paying homage to its original blueprint through this model. Anticipated to hit the global market ‘very soon,’ the sneakers are expected to be priced at around $127 (£100), offering enthusiasts a chance to embrace a piece of sporting history. Meanwhile, Messi is gearing up for his return to the field with Inter Miami, set to partake in his first competitive preseason match on January 19 against El Salvador.
