One of Adi’s great inventions was adjustable soccer cleats that he invented for his friend Sepp Herberger before the start of the 1954 World Cup. Adi made these cleats so that soccer players would be able to screw different size studs in or out depending on the condition of the field. The German team made it to the final game of the 1954 World Cup and was up against the Hungarians who were favored heavily. During the game it had begun to rain so at halftime Adi changed the studs in the cleats to help the players get better traction. I think this was a great idea and it obviously was because Germany won the game that was later called the Miracle of Bern.
