For adidas, 2012 has been largley shaped by the success of one player and one team. Leo Messi and Spain have re-written the history books this year with record-breaking success. Elsewhere, the adidas Predator and new adizero boots have been adidas' headline product pieces. Take a look at what adidas brought us in 2012.

It's potentially the most sensational boot launch of all time, with the most revolutionary football boots to ever hit the pitch. So to launch the new adidas F50 adizero miCoach football boots, SoccerBible received an exclusive invite to adidas HQ Germany...
