In May, Adidas unveiled their new cleats made specifically for two types of athletes—one that controls the game and one that creates chaos and can’t be controlled. The Ace15 is for the former—the athlete that helps set the pace and execute the plan. This cleat is designed for athletes like Mesut Özil, who control the game.

In comparison, the X15 cleats are for the athletes that create chaos, who strike without notice. These cleats are perfect for players like Thomas Müller, Luis Suárez, and Karim Benzema.

At the #BeTheDifference event, LA Galaxy stars helped celebrate the new cleats. Steven Gerrard, Mika Vayrynen, and Oscar Sorto all attended and interacted with lucky fans.
Talented, elite, young LA soccer players were able to showcase their skills in a 2 v. 2 tournament, where the winners were not only determined by the most goals scored, but also by creating the most hype in the event via their on-field style.
