I've been hearing an October release date for the Maestri 3, but EuroSport is definitely more in the loop than I am so maybe Nike has moved the date up.
The stitching across the toes reminds me of the original Maestri, and the debossed dots across the toe remind me of the texture of the original Maestri's pass/receive pads. With regards to the upper material, Nike has said that this boot will feature "Kanga Lite 2."
Also, the new stud configuration isn't quite the same as the Interact soleplate. In fact, it's probably closer to the current Maestri layout than anything, albeit with a few triangular studs and shorter heel blades. Here's an illustration of what I'm talking about. Maestri 3 studs are in red:
Interact is different in that it is entirely bladed. The Interact configuration is different from even the Laser stud configuration, although it's close. Interact studs are in red:
^good eye. i couldn't really tell bc of the blurry spyshots. looking at the second pic you uploaded tho, you can tell that the rearmost studs on the heel are definitely different. i have one pair of non-elite maestri's, and i only use them for baseball now (i play 2B, so i'm on the infield dirt anyways) because i find the CTR soleplate to be really slow when making lateral cuts on the forefoot compared to the elite soleplate.
as an aside, i have to wear the ankle shields (which nike doesn't sell in the US anymore, so i have to get them from ebayers in the UK) whenever i wear intertract because i ALWAYS end up cutting my own ankles.... i'm the only one on any of my teams who has this issue, so it's probably just me being clumsy.

the modified barca third kit that they used a couple weeks back at getafe.... i have the socks and just copped the longsleeve shirt on ebay (with unicef as the front sponsor; i don't think they make a QF one for the public), but my holy grail right now is to find a pair of those shorts!

Wow this thread really delivers guys great looks on the new maestri
Honestly the two lines on top of the boot remind me of underarmour's dominate
And the Dots remind me of the underarmour blur lol
But I am still excited to see how they turn out. It looks as if they upgraded most things on the boot that i would have had some one second guesses about, the sole plate and the weight.
I used to be a die hard mercurial wearer untill the superflys got too expensive and i bought adizero's so I am excited for Vapor IIIs and does anyone know if any new colors of the Adizero III are coming out. I like the mi coach idea but i am not wearing halloween inspired or McDonald's inspired colorways.

^2 new adizero colors in february.... one mostly black, one mostly blue (from eurosport; theyre worth following on twitter just for all the release info they give!) and "mcdonalds" was also the first thing that popped into my head when i saw the current CW lol

This is a frame of a recent adidas commercial. There have been clearer leaked photos for both of these colorways, but I can't find them at the moment so this will have to suffice.

They are killing me with these colorways for the adizero's. None are appealing to me. they all have way too much going on. I do kind of like the ones in the field shot though. Miami hurricane's looking colors.
But my decision for cleats next year will be between Adizero 3s, New Maestri's, Maybe the new pred DB5's, LZs or whatever they are called. All i ask is a lightweight shoe with some touch. I would like mi coach but it's not necessary if i have to put on an ugly adizero to get it. I guess i could always buy a black based adizero and black it out.

^white 11pro's will be copped as my SG boot. that is a piece of art. the touch that the adipure iv has is unreal - it's so simple compared to all the "tech" on the maestri and T90 (i play in all three), but i've never hit better and more consistent freekicks than with the adipure. it's the only boot that gives me enough confidence to try and hit knuckling dippers over the wall and at goal like CR7 and drogba in a match (the keyword there is 'try' lol). only negative is that the SG soleplate gets pretty brutal on your foot towards the end of a game - and that the stock laces are cheapo nylon ones like the nike product(red) aids laces, so they get loose pretty quick.

these pics come from the same leak where the CTR3 pics originated (i found them on siamboots).... i hope for nike's sake that this is just another CW of the vapor III (which would be in line with the new black/black/green CTR in the post above), and this isn't the vapor IV. like we've mentioned plenty of times before, the adizero is killing the lightweight game right now and nike needs to do make a big statement with the vapor IV. this isn't it.
