X17.1 Firm Ground's high-quality outsole construction
The Adidas X 17.2 sole plate is made of a lightweight TPU plastic material. It provides decent flexibility in the forefoot area.
From the midfoot backward, the cleat offers a sturdy flex especially helpful for push-off motions from long runs.
Excellent stud system of Adidas X 17.2
The stud pattern is composed of four slightly conical-shaped studs under the heel, six in front, and one in the middle. It offers excellent traction, acceleration, and support on natural grasslands.
Dynamic upper setup of Adidas X
The Adidas X 17.2 Firm Ground uses the TechFit technology which is a dynamic compression material that molds to the shape of the foot. It provides a secure fit as well as a closer feel of the ball.
The entire upper of the Adidas X 17.2 Firm Ground is made of a soft neoprene material covered with a thin layer of polyurethane (PU) acting as wet control component. The shoe also has embossed dots, called the Non Stop Grip (NSG) technology, all around the upper to ensure a good grip on the ball even on rainy days.
Internally, the Adidas X 17.2 Firm Ground is padded with a soft, synthetic suede material for a great in-shoe feel. It also has a fully removable insole with a mesh liner on top.
The heel area has an internal counter and the signature S-curve design, which is also found in higher models of the X 17 line. The curved design lessens the tension of the Achilles tendon.
Sturdy, secure lockdown
The shoe has the same lacing system as the Adidas X 17.1. Five pairs of nylon lace holders are found at the center of the upper. The full lace-up closure offers additional lockdown.
