Diadora LX K MG 14

The mid-range version of LX K Pro model. The only significant difference, besides $50, is lack of External Heel Counter.

Diadora LX LT MG 14

The least expensive, full-grain leather version of Diadora LX K Pro.

Diadora Maximus

Diadora Maximus RTX 14

The previous signature boots of Francesco Totti.

Diadora Maximus LU RTX 14

Less expensive version of Maximus RTX 14.

Diadora Maximus SU RTX 14

Less expensive version of Maximus RTX 14.

Diadora Maximus II RTX 14

Second version of Maximus RTX 14. The biggest changes are in the upper. Extremely asymmetrical lacing creates much bigger, laces-free striking area. Extended external heel counter doesn't make these cleats heavier than their previous version. Actually surprisingly these Diadora soccer cleats are a bit lighter and...less expensive.

Diadora Brasil

Diadora Brasil Axeler RTX 14

Great option for those who prefer smooth upper surface.

Diadora Brasil AX

Too many differences to call these Diadora soccer cleats as a "less expensive version" of Axeler RTX 14. They are more like an upgraded version of Brasil Clasico MD PU.

Other Models

Diadora Maracana RTX 12

Good choice for Kangaroo Leather cleats lovers with...low budget. These cleats feature all the most important Diadora's technologies making them very comfortable shoes for decent price.

Diadora Squadra MD PU

The least expensive true-leather boots by Diadora.

Review

The most significant difference between Diadora soccer cleats is their type of outsole (bottom of the shoe), stud shape to be exact, determining types of surfaces these cleats are suitable for.

• Rotax (RTX 12) - specially tapered studs designed to provide better traction with reduced stud pressure. The circular positioning of the studs facilitates the natural turning movement of the foot. Although RTX 12 soccer cleats are recommended for use on Firm, natural surfaces, they are also adequate for Soft grounds (not in an extreme conditions, of course).
• MD – circular, molded cleats with addition of Axeler Technology make soccer cleats suitable for Hard and Firm grounds.
• RTX 14 - re-engineered version of RTX 12. Spring studs with cylindrical stud points offer increased shock absorption. The laminar shape studs guarantee maximum traction.
• MG 14 - Flex Rotax system specifically arranges 14 circular studs to facilitate forefoot rotation and release with exact forefoot flexion. MG 14 outsole is fitted to be used on different types of surface (multi-ground).

What I like the most about Diadora soccer cleats, besides reasonable prices is that almost all Diadora's technologies had been developed to significantly increase over all comfort. Not some fancy stuff that supposedly increase the power of your shot, or make your passes more accurate, or help you "band it like Beckham" or run faster than Donovan.

Nothing like that. Diadora just simply concentrate all its resources to manufacture the most comfortable soccer cleats. And comfort of your feet will definitely help you to play better.
