I ordered white and received white with a weird beige rubber(?) coating/patch.
Shoes appear to be broken. I would return them but my size is no longer available in white or any other color. I can always return them if I don't like them on the pitch.
Pros
996 is my favorite shoe. This is my 4th pair. Width 11 fits perfectly and goes in very quickly.
Cons
Heavy and inflexible. After wearing it, there were problems with the foot muscles. The foot feels very flat and has no support when worn.
