adidas built Messi a boot. The F50 Messi Elite FG is his signature match-day boot — designed specifically around his game, in a colourway (Ivory / Semi Blue Burst / Icey Blue) that pulls straight from Argentina's colours. This is what he's wearing at the 2026 World Cup right now.
If you want the exact boot, it's in stock. If you want a more affordable F50 option, those are in stock too.
adidas F50 Messi Elite FG — Messi's Boot
The actual boot Messi wears at the 2026 World Cup. Built on the F50 Elite platform with the Hybridtouch+ upper — a premium, soft feel that gives direct ball contact without sacrificing durability. The Lace Cover+ keeps the striking surface clean. Halocage+ locks the heel for explosive direction changes. F50 Speedsystem+ outsole with bladed studs for firm ground. The colourway — Ivory, Semi Blue Burst, Icey Blue — is a direct nod to the Albiceleste.

adidas F50 Elite Laceless FG
Same F50 Elite construction without the laces — a completely clean strike zone. Preferred by technical players who want maximum contact feel on the ball. Same carbon plate and outsole as the laced version.

adidas has been building Messi boots for over 15 years. The F50 Messi Elite is the latest — built on the F50 platform but with specific upgrades designed around how he plays.
Hybridtouch+ upper. Softer and more premium than the standard F50 Elite upper. Messi's game is built on first touch and close control — the Hybridtouch+ upper gives direct ball feel with a comfort level that holds up over 90 minutes.
Lace Cover+. A clean, uninterrupted striking zone — hook-and-loop closure over the laces removes the lace ridge from the contact surface. More consistent strike, cleaner contact.
Halocage+ heel lock. When you're cutting at pace the way Messi cuts, heel stability matters. The Halocage+ keeps the foot locked in position through explosive direction changes.
The colourway. Ivory, Semi Blue Burst, Icey Blue — this isn't a coincidence. adidas built the 2026 Messi Elite colourway to echo the Albiceleste. Wearing them with the Argentina jersey looks exactly as good as it sounds.
F50 Messi Elite FG ($350) — Messi's exact boot. Argentina colourway. The one to get.
F50 Elite FG ($238) — same platform, standard colourway, $112 less.
F50 Elite Laceless FG ($238) — same as above, no laces, cleaner strike zone.

FAQs
What boots does Messi wear at the 2026 World Cup?
Messi wears the adidas F50 Messi Elite FG at the 2026 World Cup — in the Ivory / Semi Blue Burst / Icey Blue colourway, which echoes Argentina's kit colours. It's his signature boot built on the F50 Elite platform with a premium Hybridtouch+ upper, Lace Cover+ strike zone, and Halocage+ heel lock. Soccer World has it in stock at $350 AUD.
Is the Argentina Messi jersey official?
Yes. Every jersey sold at Soccer World is an officially licensed adidas product. The Argentina 26 Home Messi Jersey and Argentina 26 Away Messi Jersey are genuine licensed merchandise with Messi's name and squad number — not grey-market replicas.
What's the difference between the Messi jersey and the standard Argentina jersey?
The Messi editions have his name (MESSI) and squad number (10) pre-printed on the back. The standard Argentina Home and Away jerseys are blank — no name or number. Both are the same official kit, same fabric. If you want the #10 on the back, pick the Messi edition.
Do you offer jersey printing?
Yes — if you buy the standard Argentina jersey (blank back), Soccer World offers jersey printing services for names and numbers. Bring your jersey in-store to our Stafford location, or check the printing page for current turnaround times.
What's the free shipping threshold?
All orders over $150 AUD ship free anywhere in Australia. The Argentina Messi jerseys ($170) and F50 Elite boots ($238) both clear the threshold on their own — so no delivery charge on either.
