Worth a try but The boots in question are Adidas X Speedflow.3 SG and it came with one stud missing. The retailer cannot offer a replacement but a refund as they don’t have anymore in stock.
I’ve checked sites and I found replacements studs with a different design that were from a various adidas shoes. I could replace them all with them but I feel like I’d be impacting the functionality/design.

2 second google search..
Well if you read what I said, I wanted the same ones as I didn’t want to impact the design…
Literally on title it said for these “particular” boots meaning not universal ones.
You also said you don’t want to impact functionality how does the look do that? Just wondering. Also who sees the bottom of the studs? Again wondering.
have you contacted adidas?
“functionality/design” meaning functionality OR design.
And it doesn’t matter who see’s under the shoe, it’s a matter of self preference. I paid for them, I’m more than allowed to make them look as I please.
Ok I get the preference part, have you contacted adidas direct to see if they can help.
but the studs won’t impact functionality only the design but if you replace them all you won’t notice any difference..
I already knew about this alternative about the all metal replacements otherwise I wouldn’t be making a discussion thread. That’s why the first thing I wrote “Worth a try” and “didn’t want to impact the design” because I wanted these exact ones with the grey coloured top part as it’s the one I liked with the overall colour way of the shoe.
I just didn’t understand the functionality part it has no impact..
but I can respect that it’s your choice. I hope you find one to match.
out of interest do you use them as an ornaments, otherwise how do you see the grey part?
No as I said it’s “worth a try” as I wanted the grey ones as my first choice and if anyone had knew where to find them, I would’ve went for them otherwise I would’ve splashed on the all metal studs that I had already saw prior to creating this discussion.
And the game only just started.
Email adidas and explain the situation, they may help. Also if you have any independent sports shops about try speaking to them, I find them more helpful than the robots in big chains.. good luck
