The Adidas X Crazyfast Bugatti shoes are said to be "engineered for speed and lightness", with a number of Bugatti references in the design. The most obvious is the Bugatti blue combined with black, a dark mesh on the Adidas emblem and a pattern of Ettore Bugatti's insignia on the rear quarter. Look underneath and you'll see a carbon fiber inlay, similar to that found on Bugatti's hypercars.
The signature phrases of Adidas ('Impossible is Nothing') and Bugatti ('Create the Incomparable') are also included. Finally, the shoe box is unique to this model, with a design inspired by the weave of carbon fibre.
As the name suggests, the boots are based on the popular Adidas X Crazyfast and incorporate all the technologies that help footballers get the most out of their game. These include the lightweight Speedframe soleplate, Aerocage lining for support and stability, and Aeropacity Speedskin single layer breathable monomesh.

Of course, not many people will be wearing the Bugatti-themed boots to play football, with most pairs likely to end up as collectors' items or flipped for profit. However, Nick Craggs, General Manager and Senior Vice President of Adidas Football, revealed that the boots will be "exclusively unveiled on the pitch by Rafael Leao and Karim Benzema in November 2023", meaning that we will actually get to see them in action.

Due to the extremely limited availability of 99 pairs, Adidas and Bugatti will be auctioning them off. Those interested can visit the Adidas Collect Web 3 platform, where the auction will take place between 8 and 11 November. The lucky winners will receive an "exclusive digital shoebox" to redeem the actual pair from 13 November.
It will be interesting to see the prices of these pairs on the second hand market, which are expected to be much higher than the €260 ($274) of the standard Adidas X Crazyfast.
